Which basically means they think they know everything and aren't able to learn. I remember when I was 11 my mamaw asked me if I knew how to grill. I told her I knew the basics because I help my dad and does what he tells me to but I have never cooked anything on a grill. She picked me the youngest person to grill the steak for the fajitas and everyone else was a bit mad because they wanted that job. She later told me I got the job because I didn't know anything yet and I would learn to do it her way instead of insisting I all ready know how to cook. I had a fun day and just from that one day cooking with her I knew how to cook on the grill. So I just combined that with the skills my dad had already taught me about seasoning and making wood coals and I can grill

It was ideologically tainted too, but 30 years ago there was still a bit of balance. These days, who knows. The fancy colleges are full of contradictions. The rich kids can flirt with revolutionary politics but revert back to their trust fund and inheritance when they grow up. The poor kids just suffer and by the time they figure it out, it’s too late. Stick to business and technical fields at top tier, state funded schools. Avoid the private schools that have become so ideologically tainted you can’t even discuss things anymore without being cancelled. Liberal higher education has become a dangerous echo chamber, devoid of humor, making people miserable and not preparing them for adult life.

I so agree with Mr. Fisher. When I was a hiring manager I didn’t even look at the school or even the GPA. I looked at the classes they took, and experience. After that I was interested more in the personality and work ethic. I could teach the skills they needed to do the job, but you can’t train a good work ethic and the ability to work with the team. I always had my team interview the person, and then I took them to lunch or dinner. I wanted to see how the prospect did in a more relaxed environment. Also, I liked to see a well rounded list of classes too, what I called a Renaissance degree with not just the major, but a wide variety of classes outside of the major including both technical and liberal arts. To me it showed a well round inquisitive person.

I have been noticing the same things in the offshore industries. Some laws recently changed in 2018 to promote the hire of more college people, and it has been very noticeable. The young people being hired have no clue about the job they are supposed to do, even at the surface level. They have the legal responsibilities and credentials, but the non officer guys report things like teaching college grads to sweep and mop floors or using tape to tape object's. These same graduates are responsible for the integrity of a ship, and they can not even be allowed to do routine oil changes unsupervised on engines because when they do they have cost the company hundreds of thousands of dollars because they forgot to add the oil afterwards. The funniest moments to me was after hearing the non officer report about teaching to sweep and mop. Later that day, the grad asks how long before he becomes chief engineer. This has happened twice this year. You cannot make this stuff up.

I have trained many university-graduated employees who did not grasp even the most fundamental components of the entry-level positions let alone anything more complex than that. In short, they were a consistent, ginormous waste of time, money, & resources, they were that much of a detriment and liability to themselves, their co-workers, and (ultimately), the company.

This is mostly correct, except that grads of the Ivies tend to flock together and hire those who display expected thought and behavior patterns the other Ivy grads are comfortable with. So one Ivy grad tends to beget more of them until a gaggle of them have gathered in a workplace and things go to utter crap because of them.

This gentleman has valid points; however, lets not limit this paradigm to fancy institutions because these young kids graduating from sub-par institutions are just as bad!

He is correct, post-graduate, it is a different game! Attending the fancy schools is not about earning the degree anyway - those who are successful understand exactly what I am eluding to....
