>As for those with technical ability being more likely to also have social problems -- how is limiting the exposure to interviews and social interactions exactly going to help improve the individual we're talking about? It's important to be flexible. To defend a position by saying that person X is deficient too much in this way to have the means to get job Y so he must do job Z is a recipe for disaster. Social interactions are practiced, and the assertion that we should dissuade those that lack in experience from practice is wrong, in my opinion. I never suggested not trying or giving up. I was simply relating that for such people its often extremely difficult to find a job. The fact that I keep trying is the only reason I'm not living in my car right now.
