Let them fill their ranks with a homogenous set of people without breadth or depth of experience, and see how it works for them.

Those job reqs are also code for "low pay and long hours".


Just searched for new and recent grad jobs on LinkedIn. Found plenty: Amazon, Yelp, Visa, Intuit, Ericsson...Must not have read the story.


By reserving jobs for new or recent grads, tech companies are essentially saying older applicants have no chance. How can that be right?
