- jrockway 13y agoI see a lot of people put their GPA from 25 years ago on their resume. I didn't put mine on my resume and nobody has ever asked about it.
- smcl 13y agoGPA seems to be an American thing. I graduated Uni in 2007 (in Scotland) and I've never been asked mine.
- SiVal 13y agoNo, it's a Google thing. No American company has ever asked for my GPA, but the Google HR person next door said that if I wanted to interview for a job at Google, HR would demand my GPA (from decades ago!) and would not grant an interview unless it was above some (secret) threshold. If their recruiters reached out to me, HR would still require the GPA, but she said that the interviewers might not care about it.
- vonmoltke 13y agoWhat stage of interview? I have had two phone screens with Google recruiters, and one actual phone interview. Nobody ever asked for my GPA, and my degree is from a university most people here have probably never heard of (and is EE, to boot).
- UK-AL 13y agoGPA is similar to degree class in the UK. I think the GPA system is better though. Nearly every employer in the UK asks for your degree class.
