My friend and I were arguing about the difference in GPAs. He said that if two candidates were pretty much the same except one had a 3.9 and the other had a 4.0, the 4.0 would always get the job over the 3.9 even if the 3.9 was more interesting and appealing to the interviewer. I completely disagreed - I think that at that level, the difference in GPA is negligible and fit takes over.
What do you think?
I think your friend is an idiot.
Word.
your friend clearly doesn't have any experience in the real world
what a douche
You shouldn't argue with friends.
Looks like your friend may be unemployed for a while because he clearly doesn't get it.
If one surrounds themselves with funny friends he seems funny....
Why would you guys talk about this when there are literally 9 million more interesting things to discuss. Sometimes its better to just let people believe what they want because there is no chance you will change their mind and trying to is a waste of time.
Agreed that this is a really silly way of looking at it. Fit/experience/etc is much more important than a 0.1 point bump in GPA, especially at that level.
ermm.... i guess i would go with the 4.0 if it was ALL ELSE EQUAL (like identical twins with the exact same ECs, hobbies, and personality). But that 0.1 GPA difference means very little if compared to other factors... honestly I'd go with the guy I liked better at that point.
That's interesting because my friend and I were arguing about the difference in penises. He said that if two candidates were pretty much the same except one had a 3.9" penis and the other had a 4.0" penis, the 4.0" would always get the girl over the 3.9" even if the 3.9" was more interesting and appealing to the girl. I completely disagreed - I think that at that level, the difference in penis is negligible and fit takes over.
What do you think?
flaccid?
You seem to be awfully obsessed with penises. Hardly any post recently without a reference to them. What are you trying to tell us MBP?
I don't think your 'friend' exists r.
your friend is a fucking tool and you are a tool for humoring him.
I'd go for a 3.2 with sports involvement over a 4.0 math machine. Nobody wants a finance robot. We're looking for well-rounded applicants.
This...
i would go for the one that is better to look at
stupid argument..
your friend is an idiot.. I have seen an SA in a group in my office get hired for FT with a 3.0 and sports over another SA who had a 4.0 and a triple major.
You and your friend need to get laid.
Is the difference in pen--err---GPA really .1? Because if one candidate was "more interesting and appealing to the interviewer" this seems like a stupid question.
I was arguing with my friend the other day that the color red is soo much better than blue because it is pleasing to me but they said blue is better b/c it brings out their eyes...can you reinforce that he's retarded b/c he doesn't agree about something mundane and fucking retarded???
Make new friends..
completely agree. Your friend is ot worth having...if something so retarded caused you to have an arguement
is your "friend", you?
