How many recruiters does it take to have a bad take on the Pope’s hiring? One to start it, and hundreds to repost it with inspirational hashtags.

The problem with expedition 33 is that everyone uses it to confirm their own bias without even doing a google search. This has 60+ repost and nobody tried to ask "who mentored and trained?".

My son works for this company here in the U.K. It was playing the video game ‘Deus Ex’ that set him on the path to becoming a Biomechanical Engineer. Sometimes, it’s nice to highlight the good things that video games can do. And also remind myself just how proud of him I am.
