From my personal experience, this rings true but mostly when applying for junior level positions. I've found that both myself and others I know in similar situations have had a lot more success applying for medior to senior level positions (assuming you have the confidence and experience to back it up).
- Rapzid 3y agoMy experience as well; haven't really been asked since getting mid+. Once before getting hired in an interview with the CEO at a startup, but just shrugged it off. Usually this comes up(outside interview but on this instance too) like this: "Oh, where did you go to college?" "I didn't." "Ohh.." Lol. I got hired by that company anyway and it worked out really well for both parties:)
- khokhol 3y ago"Oh, where did you go to college?" "If you didn't read my resume, why are you interviewing me?"
- Rapzid 3y agoI left college college dropout off my resume. Otherwise yeah I think many can sympathize with being hired and having managers not know your history. "Oh you have experience operating SaaS and designing cloud infra? You know how to build packages?!" "Dude, I've been working as an AWS solutions architect and developer for like 8 years and worked as the primary systems engineer at an ISP and VPS provider. Why did you even hire m... I want a raise."
