Would you ask a doctor at what age they started surgery?
It's irrelevant.
You might as well ask about the wealth of the candidate's parents, which is significant factor in whether a child has access to a desktop computer on which they can do serious coding.
- ozim 4y agoSimply asking about starting age is trying to infer "genuine interest" based on a single data point. Which I agree is irrelevant.
