In my current corporate IT position, I probably would never interview a Stanford grad who wasn't damaged goods in some way. It's unlikely that someone who had those credentials and connections would be interested in working here. They would probably be looking for something with a hot startup or big tech company. I'd also wonder if they would leave as soon as a bigger and better deal came along.

I would prefer to hire someone who was hungry who has the basic knowledge we need, a willingness to learn and to be a team player.
