Answer 1

Edwin While GPA may apply to other professionals like lawyers and doctors, it's never been a qualifier for programmers, at least since the mid 90s when I got started.

Answer 2

Thanks Jamie💐
If I encountered such situation in an interview in future I will remember these words and smile(that will release a lot of pressure)🤣🤣

Answer 3

My GPA has never been requested for anything ever. But I have been requested to do background checks, job verifications, and drug tests.

I've also had to complete personality tests, cognitive and aptitude tests as well.

Answer 4

David Carroll trust me sir! Your words made me very happy
Because I believe that my past gpa's shouldn't describe my present situation(not because I got very bad, I am not even in college)
In some profession it does but I am happy that I am interested in such a profession where it doesnt

Answer 5

Many companies put standards that whoever has GPA 3.0 OR 3.5 will qualify for the job.
It's a important factor to know about your academics but it's not asked in a interview.
