The real place that needs qualified candidates is the HR departments. How
many times have we all read ads that sounded like the person leaving was
giving them a laundry list of "ya' gotta have all this to be me" of things
and then handing it to the HR department? The HR department scans for the
skillset required and then comes up short when they don't have another "Bob
with xxxxxx skills" person. 30 candidates that could do the job and
they're looking for that one magic bullet. As others have pointed out
though, they are looking for that one person because they don't have to
train them. Training IMHO is a joke anyway -- I've always learned more
doing than being lectured to. The "real world" and "text book" are two far
different things when it comes to knowledge.
That reminds me of my favorite part from a John Mayer song, "No Such Thing":
So the good boys and girls take the so called right track
Faded white hats
Grabbing credits
Maybe transfers
They read all the books but they can't find the answers
