        I often advise students to do something open source so they have a portfolio. When hiring, I really love having a body of work to study rather than trying to extrapolate from opaque credentials and undetailed transcripts.

        So true. But it also applies to a career - how can a resume show breadth, capacity, potential? I know many PMs (for instance) who would be amazing applying their skills/learnings to different types of orgs than where they currently work.

        Replying to @davidmarcsiegel @garrytan and

        ... But many big orgs filter such folks out, wanting ppl who've been doing "exactly" their type of work previously. And b/c they "can" filter them, in that they get so many applicants... & then wonder yrs down the road why they don't have diversity of opinion/capacity in mgmt.

        Enjoyed this talk! I'm a self-taught Unreal Engine 4 developer. I've come a long way in my five-year journey. I'm able to build multiplayer games, design internal tools and a bunch more. 👍 I wonder if the term auto-didact will become more relevant in the next decade?

        Does meritocracy even exist in the U.S.?
