Will recruiters/computers know that a 4.0 GPA at one college is the same as a 3.0/4.0 at another college?
For example, some positions require you to have at least a 3.5 GPA. A person from a Cuny college can easily get a 3.5 GPA. But then this 3.5 GPA quality of work at a CUNY might be the same as a 2.75 quality of work at an Ivy League college.
So if you have these 2 candidates with the equivalent quality of work in college but graded differently:
1. Cuny graduate 3.5 GPA
2. Ivy League graduate 2.75 GPA
Does the recruiter/computer system automatically disqualify candidate 2. because he did not meet the 3.5 GPA threshold even though his school has a stricter grading standard?
Yes, a lot of applications with GPAs below a certain threshold will get automatically dinged, regardless of the name of the school. Humans will then typically filter out the high GPAs from institutions that aren't rigorous/prestigious enough. For any selective job, neither of your hypothetical candidates are getting an interview.
This is false it isn't funny. Just because a college is ranked higher on U.S. News, does not mean that it has harding grading criteria. I hear Harvard (ever heard of it?) has some pretty nice grade inflation.
Maybe stop determining individual's self worth based on their high school performance, which determines where they can go to college, and start looking at other more important characteristics.
OP is exaggerating, but I transferred from a nontarget to a target, and grading is absolutely harder at the target.
