I think it was more interesting what he was saying about running the experiments on a small percentage of your employees.

He's a liar. I interviewed at Google and didn't pass based on technical skills, the least important aspect as he claims.

He's lying in order to create "warm fuzzies."

This is what their real hiring process is like:

"You should also practice whiteboard space-management skills [or] your interviewer will not be impressed... it always irks me when people do this. Oh, and don't let the marker dry out while you're standing there waving it."

If their hiring managers doc points for not using markers the way they like, they're certainly going to be hyper-focused on the specific technical skills and work history instead of warm fuzzies like "comfortable with ambiguity."

Remember their "Do no evil" slogan? Kind of a joke these days.

This guy's skull shape causes pause as well as doubts as to his credulity or usefulness...OH, and I hate whatever site this embed is from....Assholes shoving the next vid down yer neck between adverts??..Fuck THAT!

So there's yer vote!
