So your boss offers you a choice of which prospective employee to hire. He and HR have narrowed the pile down to just three choices. Only one can be hired, the rest become homeless, contract TB, infect people go ride the bus, and die.
1: A white woman, fresh out of college with a bachelors in CompSci and a masters in Gender Studies. She won the Leah Culver Award for being a strong programmer woman who don't need no code three years in a row.
2: A fresh off the boat Indian. Claims proficiency in Python 4, Windows 9, C++15, and Verilog. Resume shows he has twelve degrees from a university whose name you can't pronounce.
3: The Brogrammer. He's worked at 23 failed startups and is an expert in Ruby on Rails. He works 80+ hours a week, but is still not very productive, due to fucking around most of the time.
Which do you choose, and why?
