[quote=Anonymous]Not all companies are Google. We're small but still need good technical staff. I was just at a job fair (for technical positions) and looking for May 2014 grads. Unless the candidate had a really impressive project or other experience, their resume got tossed if it was below 3.25. If they didn't put GPA on it, I asked and wrote it down. I did talk to every person that came up and asked about their classes (since I've taken the same ones 10 years ago) and other interests so there was a chance to stand out in other ways too but the gpa is a first hoop. In my field, after your first full time job, the grades matter so much less as it becomes all about what you actually know how to do. [/quote]
