Some employers no longer consider a prospective employee's grade point average as a useful signal. Why might this be the case?
because it is not fair to the students who put in a lot of effort and still get bad grades
because grade inflation has made it considerably easier for students with a poor work ethic and little self-control to get high grades
because productivity is highly correlated with a worker's grade-point average
because only the really smart students receive high grade-point averages
