An employer would be a complete fool to let an image like college partying influence their hiring decisions.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Most employers just aren't willing to look beyond the dumbest or worst thing someone has done.
One of the big concerns I have is that most of the HR departments in a lot of companies are hiring away from creativity and they don't know it. For instance, they are requiring everybody to have a college degree. The most creative people I know couldn't deal with college.
I think it's sort of an outrage that companies should have to hire firms to teach the college graduates they employ how to write.
We're going to be very strong with employers in all of our aspects, because I think there's been too much of this idea let's try and get along here, and we've eroded some of our standards.
My father would have been spectacularly ill-suited to working for an institution of any kind, and I suspect that, to a lesser degree, that's true of me, too.
I don't believe in firing professors. They have academic freedom.
My only claim is that not all talented people should go to college and not all talented people should do the exact same thing.
No one should be denied the opportunity to get an education and increase their earning potential based solely on their inability to pay for a college education.
It is fashionable to be a college dropout, no? Like Steve Jobs.
Laboring men can perform for themselves the office of becoming their own employers.
