"the highest performers after year 2 on the job were between a 3.2 and 3.7 GPA. For people with industry experience, we found no statistically significant difference anywhere between 3.1 and 4.0 GPA"
I stole that from Reddit. The first thing I wondered was whether there was any statistical difference between 3.2 to 3.7 and 3.1 to 4.0, but that's just me. I also did wonder how many they took on with GPAs below 3.0.
However, statistical quibbles aside, it seems to show that industry experience before or during university compensates for some extent for non optimal grades. I've always thought the bias against 4.0s was a bit daft myself, not that I was even close.
