You beat me to the punch. This article says more about the author than it does about the candidate. Obviously, the candidate didn't want to talk about his English major, but the author kept hammering away from every angle anyway. Then, when the author doesn't get any meaty info on the English studies (AKA doesn't get his way), he takes his ball and goes home. He tries to rationalize his way out of passing on the candidate, that the actual sales team enthusiastically approved: we eventually did find someone for that position, with a lot less relevant experience. But she learned the job in about six weeks, and her upside enabled her to take on a lot of the unforeseen — and valuable — tasks that the previous candidate would have stumbled around.
