If you look like you’re paying attention, teachers will like you even if you never talk to them. This is exactly how I got my job as a teaching assistant for programming classes and I only remember talking to the teacher once or twice all semester. This job ended up being the reason why I got a job interview with every company I submitted my resume to. It doesn’t take much to get a significant advantage over everyone else in college. This is a great point. And also everything that's wrong with both university education and "the interview process" condensed into a single paragraph: non-functional behaviour, selective disclosure, cognitive bias, and path-dependency....etc.
