It’s not bursting my bubble. Over-education is usually an indication of poor job performance in the engineering world. Been in this biz a long time.
.....haha.....oh I see....should I even try and argue with that logic....hell, I know you’ve been on here a long time but whether you like it or not, Cal still has the top programs in most engineering, computer sciences etc.... I think you just don’t like it cause of Cal’s reputation. I’m not an enginner, but my father was a VP for Gas Operations for PG&E for many many years....so I’ve known many engineers both mechanical, civil and computer over the years.... They would tell you the same.....
In the 80’s I was the guy at a high tech company that got to break in the NEW College Grads in various engineering disciplines. We hired almost exclusively from Stanford and Berkeley. The higher their degree the longer it took to make them useful and the less they knew about the real world. Had one Berkeley PhD that never did figure out how to load the large format printer - physics.
