If the candidate is talented, should not there be extra effort to get that candidate onboard?
The reason being, talent can't be taught in a classroom. It can't be bought.One is born with talent, ability, flair or aptitude. They either have it or they don't. A God given gift.
Would it not be sensible to take the talented candidate and teach them, what can be taught.
That too me, would be common sense.
I did mention this to him on the comments. My query was removed and no response.
Maybe someone from human remains, from any outfit could explain this to me. At the moment I am unable too get my head around the thought process, that allows them to come up with this nonsense.
What utter twaddle! Its been proven that practicing (in this case the compass test) improves marks markedly the more the tests are practiced. That goes for pretty much everything else too!
