This just introduces another type of bias, the "did you just graduate from a top 30 CS school or are you able to spend 6-12 months teaching yourself DS/Algorithms while working full time" bias.
Lots of "Stockholm syndrome" surrounding Leetcode style interviewing practices.
- ummonk 4y agoOr are you smart enough to teach yourself DS/Algorithms in a couple weeks.
- therealdrag0 4y agoWhich bias would you prefer? Immutable characteristics or those that can be build with hard work and intelligence?
- adamsmith143 4y agoSo there is no possible way that people with intelligence and high work ethic aren't able to graduate from a top 30 cs school or spend a year outside work hours teaching themselves obscure algorithm trivia to pass an interview? I'm afraid you are a 22 year old recent graduate with little grasp on life outside School or Silicon Valley.
- therealdrag0 4y agoI don’t follow tbh. If you need a top 30 school or a year of prep then you’re doing it wrong or are not good enough sorry. But that’s okay there is a sliding scale of employers out there. If you think I’m a 22 yo or in SV then you need to update your heuristics, cuz you’re incorrect.
