Clueless people use lots of stupid things for hiring decisions. Which is great, because I don't want to work for clueless people...
Whoa! Hiring decisions? Really? It's like so much of dependence on some third party.
Do you have any reference to companies doing so?
If anything, that could serve as a good qualitative metric for filtering out eventual employers/clients.
>they're able to sell it to people who are even more clueless than themselves.
That's why it's a problem! Those clueless people use it for hiring decisions, or other stupid reasons.
