Here’s a Thing: There’s No Correlation Between a College Degree and Coding Ability
April 3, 2015 /
Mike Rosenbaum has a profound insight to share with tech companies, but he’s found them a hard sell.
After wrapping up a stint as a White House economist under President Clinton, Mr. Rosenbaum became a Harvard fellow and set about something that bugged him: Why should fancy degrees make him a better candidate for a programming job than others who lack the degrees but might be better coders?
Rather than publish a paper on the topic, Mr. Rosenbaum started a business based on finding just those kinds of talented employees that hirers might overlook.
