I hire people. The school matters very little to me.

Things that are dramatically more important to me than where they went to school:

- Career progression
- Attitude
- Actual results
- Ability to express themselves
- Interest in the job

That said, I’m not hiring people straight out of school so perhaps my criteria are different.
