> Or do you think a handful of interviews can give a more thorough evaluation that 8 years of secondary school + 3-4 years of technical college/uni + however many years in the workforce? Actually, I do. I think that uni grades are mostly uncorrelated to real-life ability, and I think that there is a class of employee that's really good at looking good regardless of actually doing well. So his coworkers would say that he did great. Getting stuck with that guy really sucks. Not to mention that most employers are so worried of being sued that at best they'll say "I can confirm Joe worked here from 2011 to 2014"
