> If you're a doctor, and you apply for a hospital job, do they at least reply to acknowledge your application? Do they then send a rejection letter if you're simply 'not what they're looking for'? If they then start to consider you as a candidate, do you have to 'trial cure' a couple of patients, take a cell-function exam, and endure 6 rounds of other interviews and screens before getting on the final shortlist?

I think this shows a better version of trade school is needed for software developers; computer science degrees don't seem to be enough to have confidence in someone's abilities. At least doctors have rigorous schooling and training, arguably even a bit too long and expensive.
