Thats the one line that stood out in the Posterous job announcement. Sounds pretty elitist to me. I went to one of those schools, but I can tell you that I've met far many brilliant hackers who didn't go to these schools.
- wheels 18y agoHere's I think a much better way of saying it: "Awesome at what you do and have some way of showing it." I personally prefer links to past projects and code samples. Whether or not somebody knows their way around theory you can sort out in an interview (and having a degree from a top university is unfortunately a frustratingly bad indicator of such). Figuring out if they can code is a lot harder.
- rantfoil 18y agoAgree 100%. We want projects and code samples... the school itself doesn't matter.
