My former boss, a selfdeclared IT expert, once was looking
for new team members. Skills in Perl had been a nice to have,
but not a must.
One Applicant had the right core skills,
but he has writen Skills in Pearl and not
Skills in Perl, so my boss rejected his
appication.
At the end this turned out as
blame for my boss, because
the guy has written a recognized thesis
about this real time Operating system
RTOS Pearl.
