> I would definitely spend some more time to look into the applicant.

So would I.

> Yes, I would never hire her for algorithm optimization, but if she was building a website that doesn't innovate technologically but rather creates social, cultural, aesthetic or other value (which the majority of startups do) - I would take a second look.

She'd also probably be good at doing design / front-end parts of a website while communicating with back-end developers (who might be doing algorithm optimisation).

I expect she'd be good at talking to designers from a coders point of view too.

This applicant I suppose. What about the next 50? I'd grow REALLY tired of trying to parse through all of it.

Isn't that true for just about anything (at first) original and novel?
