I agree with this. Two questions it pushes 1. What is main constraint on this loop? Google churn rate? Google hiring? 2. Technically could go path elite schools did. Expand meritocratic channel to wash incumbent elitism. Which makes it nec but not sufficient for cascade
I think the main constraint is the ability of organizations to convince the 70th percentile student at Stanford or Harvard that they have an option which causes career value equivalent to a B? from Stanford or Harvard with 95%+ probability and, secondarily, convince parents.
This kind of process is always going on. So too is the reverse process (as @niftynei pointed out). To be convincing you'd need to argue that there's likely to be an enormous net shift. I think it's plausible, but that's mostly intuition; I've never seen someone make a strong case
n.b. I bet $100 that the Googlers at Goldman can trivially find each other via an internal network or tool which explicitly supports that use case, a fact which is not irrelevant to how quickly they can catalyze a cascade in Goldman's preferences.
Yeah also very bullish on bunch of incumbents not following it, but being obsoleted by companies that use tech organization/hiring/processes
there’s a good example of the opposite of this happening (but in some ways a great outline of the challenges) in Liars Poker around switching from hire anyone to requiring a degree from a certain school
the driving factor, as Lewis posits it, is the firms leaders desire to raise their social status in NYC, something money alone couldn’t do. one way to accomplish this was to raise the elitism of the firm via their hiring pipeline.
