There were other details I left out for the sake of brevity, like her career beginning in marketing and her start into websites being managing a Wordpress site to advertise for her company. Her experience tilted more toward UI design than programming, which would be nice if that’s what I needed because engineers are incompetent at UI design and Silicon Valley was completely accurate, but I need a developer. The biggest red flag was she actually had some sample code on github and it was.......really really bad.
Also, had she had degrees in art and writing I would have concluded what you did: she had a career separate from her personal interests. But getting a degree in biology, going into marketing as a first job for 2 years, then doing web pages made me Judge Her. I bet she couldn’t even recompile her own Linux kernel or tell me how many piano tuners are in Seattle. |
