High screwel also.

I know an engineering manager who desperately needs a half dozen machinists. One hundred plus applied for the jobs. After corporate HR finished with the Psychological Screening, there were three applicants left. He has no idea which questions are disqualifying the candidates.

BTW, this is BEFORE the drug screening, so that’s not the problem.

Reading stuff like this continues to tell me that not going to college was the better choice.

Year's ago at one of my wife's side of the family gatherings I was chastised because I claimed that college had become a big money sucking diploma mill and most of those pieces of paper the grads got weren't worth a tenth of what was paid for them.

10 years later everyone at that gathering who steadfastly claimed their college degree would get them or had got them good paying jobs are not working in the field that they got a college degree in.

3 of them never got a job in their chosen field 2 did and then got canned after a couple of years.

Bottom line they wasted a lot of time and a lot of money.

Yet guys like Bill Gates, Steve Jobs, Mark Zuckerburg, Ray Kroc, Dave Thomas all managed to create Billion Dollar Empires without getting a college degree.

And there are a lot more average American Businessmen and Businesswomen who become quite wealthy starting a business sans college degree.
