Hmm? This doesn't seem impossible at all at Google. My last job in Seattle as a Data Scientist was approaching that in salary alone, and I'm not good enough to work at Google. Those who are should make about that much.

- judk 12y agoYou are not not good enough to work at Google.
- nerfhammer 12y agoThis is a roundabout way of saying that google's hiring standards are often a total mystery
- icelancer 12y agoTrue. But I am a college dropout with no experience in formal Computer Science and my professional developer skills are quite lacking. I am good at hacking data and statistics research. Not really what they are looking for, from what I can tell.
- zaphar 12y agoDon't sell yourself short. I also am a college dropout with no formal Computer Science education and had limited professional developer experience and I worked at Google for 7 years. Google's whole business is built around hacking data and statistics. You may very well be exactly what they are looking for.
- icelancer 12y agoAh well. Too late anyway. Entrepreneurship bug can't keep me pinned down! Got out of software dev as a primary business.
- nerfhammer 12y agoI know someone with a data science degree from a top school whom google recently passed on. No idea what they may have been really looking for.
