High school grad rejected by 16 colleges reveals how he got Google job 

he just so happened to be on the wrong side of AA, unfortunately

@@101bothunterthey can’t accept every student with a padded resume

It was obvious that he didn't need to go to university to learn coding. Might that have been a reason??? Why would he spend four years in college knowing what he knows. I will most certainly be happy with this year's college selection process when people like Stanley will no longer blame their rejection from top universities on Affirmative Action.

@@101bothunter He didn't get into the California schools either. California schools don't have AA.

@@junicornplays980 cool

Mf taught himself

yeah yeah yeah. it's all dad. Like every kid who do drugs is because their dada teach them the skill to do drugs?

or be hoes, they momma taught them to be hoes 🤣🤣@@gooderlinsen

Sneak AA??

​@kimchi_taco it's over stop blaming black people.

@@boomboom141 It's definitely AA. Any Latino or Black with that GPA would walk into any college in America.

It’s bec of “diversity “ he should of changed his race and put trans lmao!

@@danieltenorio3559or it could be millions of other students just like him with padded resume and transcript. Like a robot just grades turned out like an assembly line

@@danieltenorio3559 Nope it's not. Not this time around. Can't blame Affirmative Action any longer.

@@doglover7675 Sure is correct! You asked for it. You got it. Now go bark up another tree.

He has someone who knows the inner workings on how to get a job there and how to prepare, it's no surprise that he's not entry level.

That's not the point. The point was a level playing field. They deprived this kid of his chance to go to college and have that experience just because he's Asian and his only sin was that he was brilliant, worked hard and had good grades. Wrong is wrong.

He was more than likely rejected because of his impressive resume. He didn't need college. What would be the point of him going to university if he already knew what he needed to know to get a coding job. It is disingenuous for Stanley to say that his father didn't have much to do with his being hired.

@@Bklyn112 Just being in the Bay Area makes a big difference. I had a friend who learned programming from DOS help files, but while he could make output that looked like a screen saver the kid of a programmer was compiling things into executables.

@@edwardmitchell6581 Probably doing whatever it is that you said he was doing at 7!

@@Bklyn112 he had been reached out to by google recruiters when he was just 13 years old and you strongly believe it was his father that got him into google?

Or because there were millions of other students with the same padded transcript and robot created profile

His dad helped him get the job so….

Wow! Very impressive… congratulations to your daughter 🎊 ❤

Asian applications only.

@@TPM188maybe because they are studying the exam, padding their resume, and doing things only to get into college then become average in college because it was o but hey only did things to pad their application not to actually be great.

what makes playing an instrument or knowing a language better than other extracurricular skills? These activities are very much based on culture. I an assure you as an educator that a standardized test is not indicative of success in your career choice. Frankly, many 1st generation Asian students don't understand the concept of networking. They will stay at their desk working hard while other students go to the right parties events to meet people who can get them internships. If they get an internship, again they don't socialize but they do work hard. The socialization and being liked by firm partners is what gets you hired or into a great school.

And for those kids already working through high school, there isn’t time for extracurricular activities. It was rough for me in the 80s; I don’t know how working class kids get into college at all these days.

How is the college recruiter stupid if they know that he already knows what their teaching?

@@Bklyn112 I know recruiters couldn't tell the difference from a structural engineering major to a civil engineering major, some even worse. Could you? Or could be Jeremy Lin syndrome and later regret it.

recruiters usually dont know code.... they care about culture fit......

@@ThatsOPV Nor do they need to know how to code. The point is they knew that he didn't need college. His father had been grooming him for this sort of move from a very young age. He used his connections working for Google. If Stanley had gone to college, he would not have gotten all of the publicity that he's now getting. It was probably never the plan anyway.

@@ThatsOPV And this is why universities are so woke and nasty. ie, Evergreen State College, Bret Weinstein.

Another Asian took his spot?

His dad did a great job helping him get the job. Rich parents have more resources so this is classic rich kid story.

@@baboon_baboon_baboonclassic rich kid got accepted to Ivy because their parents donate

Understand. Though people who're really passionate about coding can teach themselves; a lot of coding skills come by doing actual projects, not simply theoretical knowledge. Also, software companies have protocols to catch bugs (e.g., they often have extensive testing processes, they hire testers and design edge case tests, they do extensive user testing); so, software developers' mistakes usually end up not affecting the product.

What a dumb statement. Not every major/degee/certificate etc is about the conventional "hard, book smart subjects" like stem. Some are creative like art and some are mostly physical skill based like culinary or dancing. You bat eaters think everything in life should be about STEM these days.

@@ecor150 So artistic people aren't "book smart"? That's a dumb statement in itself. My kid is artistic and loves to draw, fantastic artist and enjoys reading and science. She plans on going into art design. It's so annoying that people think "book smart" is limited to only STEM.

@@ecor150 "Bat eaters" nice touch. Definitely defines your ignorance.

@GemelleChannel but yall bat eaters are screaming he should get in only based on scores and grades which are literally the two things society define as "book smart". What if this kid is boring as ƒṳ©Ḳ and didn't do any other $Ĥ!+ besides a phony company and made up tutor hours. There's more to grades and scores. Yall are dumb and ignorant as ƒṳ©Ḳ. Your people and culture looks down on anything not "book smart" or stem related. And ƒṳ©Ḳ yall bat eaters. You guys are anti Black and Brown and are the most racist people on the planet. There are so many comments on other videos of this story where yall are blaming Black and Brown folks on this. Aren't you guys suppose to be smart and already know that affirmative action is gone and the WHITE WOMEN benefit most from it, that most legacy are WHITE. But keep blaming Black and Brown folks on this. I guess yall will continue to eat bats and spread diseases also.

Not alot you can do these days fresh out of school with a bachelors degree anyway.

What are you talking about? Not every smart kid is guaranteed a seat at a top university. They can't blame affirmative action or quotas anymore. There is no transparency in life. There are 1000's of Stanley's on university campuses all over the country. Stanley's trump card was that his father worked for Google.

lOL literally all the other kids at his school probably had his stats and better.... he went to Palo Alto, one of the most competitive areas in the world. If it werent for raced based admissions (that help legacy WHITE people more), your schools would be filled with just filled with people by CA so lol good bye. nothing about him screams that he is more special than others.

There are a bunch of Asian kids with scores, like his and are doing the same thing as him. Race now you're funny. Have you even looked at statistics?

What statistics? You mean stereotyping, which is what you're doing.@@dr.migueltorrezedd8651

Welp, won't be able to blame quotas for rejection this year.

That's how Indians run the bay area in tech and medicine. They go to school there where it's straight to the point, while US students here are doing 8 years of med school while the Indians are only doing 4. Two years of every Bachelor's degree is filled with non-sense that has nothing to with your major.

Lol what a way to be one dimensional......

@@savabagwidow9554exactly imagine an engineering without civics or ethics when creating things ….

@@savabagwidow9554it’s only one dimensional if you ignore the rest of a person’s life. He may also be an avid reader, taking care of a grandparent, babysitting for nephews or nieces, and being a large part of the social fabric that is typical and common in India and leads to a well-rounded person. By contrast, I’ve seen many “multi-dimensional” westerners who lack social skills, never socialize with anyone outside their own generation, never babysat, don’t know how to use a matchstick, can’t do laundry, can’t cook, nor care for elderly, spend large chunks of their day doom scrolling on social media, spiral into existential crisis every week, and need therapy.

If he was helping his family with business documents, he might have thought about a digital signing software. I don't think we should be quick to believe he's faking it.

@@xingzheli7431 the startup is only questionable, nobody will have the proof. But you can’t deny that all his resume content coincided with his dad’s working content, including the two AWS competition. It is his responsibility to tell the Admission Officer how much he did, not listed all his family did. Also, most kids are strong in coding will perform well in math competition too, but Stanley score zero on Math competition. This is why his resume has too many questions and not persuasive to anybody know how things work. As for Google’s job, if you have a good referral, it is not that difficult. Also he is not working in a development team. It was confirmed that he works at the sales team on customer relationship management and he is the first and only software engineer in his team. Now you can understand his job is not that hard-core at all.

🤔

His dad also works at Google.

What is so special about a digital signature app that it takes three years? I wrote video games, an interpreter for a new language, soccer robot software, etc when I was in high school, with each project taking 1-3 months.

Exactly. I’m sure the kids smart but his dad works at Google apparently

He got into two schools though. Shouldn't education be independent of the institution?

Apply the same rejected schools again and see what happens. I am very sorry to see your rejections. But keep your faith. My two daughters went to Stanford and UCLA.

Asians need to be stopped from getting any smarter than they already are. One day they will turn against you and prove that eugenics theory is correct. They'll begin eradicating anyone who doesn't pass a threshold of intelligence from society.

It’s a myth that one needs to be good at math to be good at coding. It’s true if you focus on machine learning or deep learning field.

@@deerbeau well, if you are really computer Science degree,you won’t say these things. nowadays, the Admission Officer give a shit to the coding competition, because every kids won some coding competition. But AO will think highly of the winner of math competition, since it’s more rare. That’s why Stanley is not as excellent as he and his family think. University of California has a very fierce competition in getting in, especially computer science program he only applied for.

@@deerbeau You don't have to be amazing at math, but being bad at math is rare in my experience. It is slightly suspicious

Dude... Asians need to be stopped from getting any smarter than they already are. One day they will turn against you and prove that eugenics theory is correct. They'll begin eradicating anyone who doesn't pass a threshold of intelligence from society. They'll even turn against us the democrats.

I agree

So in the spring he was rejected by MIT, University of Michigan,Stanford, UCLA, UCSD, UCSB, UC Davis, Cal Poly SLO, Carnegie Mellon, Cornell, University of Illinois, Georgia Tech, UC Berkeley, Caltech, University of Wisconsin and University of Washington. Really😏. What did they see that caused them to say "no thank you" so consistently? We need an IN DEPTH investigation! I'm going to be following this one. 👀🧢

How do you know he's a great hire. When the original interview took place, he had only been on the job two days.

@@chenitabest4969 google’s interview process is very rigorous. Many people with experience have a hard time passing. Google reviewed his code on GIT which I’m guessing impressed them in the first place.

Anxiously not, being that there are twice as many students in these schools from his group than said minorities.
