No, getting them to drop out is easy.

However, convincing them they should take a lower salary with you, instead of working for Google, becomes an issue.

I'm walking away from a startup right now because they don't understand they have a lot of competition. 1) other companies, 2) myself. I'm going to startup on my own because the terms are terrible at my current startup.

Except for that Google wouldn't actually them without a 3.7 and a degree.

/Those who don't understand the Google hiring "algorithm" are doomed to re-implement it.
