Not to nitpick your Uber anecdote, but the "candidates in the same age group came from a non-college/-university background and usually outshone those who did" probably had to have some strong non-university background like significant practical experience in projects or work to pass the resume filter process to make their way to your interview stage. So there's probably a great deal of selection bias in that specific example.

Lol, probably not. To be clear, these were people doing on-sites, which means they passed resume filter AND a TPS.

Uber's hiring pipeline was a mess.
