IMHO no. I've had the giant company I work for throw me some recent college graduates to work for our team, but it turns out despite their claims that they knew C, they really only knew how to read the hello-world type of code. It was frustrating to realize they didn't understand our usage of function pointers or the C preprocessor. I also found people who couldn't read very basic Bash scripts, and that was very frustrating too since a lot of our tooling relies on Bash (and no, they're no the horrible stuff you can do with Bash, we migrate to Python once the Bash script gets complicated). And don't even get me started on the Computer Scientist who didn't understand a C++ destructor.
