Why Google Wants To Stop Hiring Based On Ivy League Credentials

(Ferenstein Wire) One of the world’s most sought after employers doesn’t care much about Ivy League credentials or a sterling college transcript. “It’s one of the flaws in how we assess people,” explained Laszlo Bock, Vice President of People Operations at Google Inc. “We assume that if you went to Harvard, Stanford or MIT that you are smart. We assume that if you got good grades you will do well at work… there is no relationship between where you went to school and how you did five, 10, 15 years into your career. So, we stopped looking at it.”
