Generally the whole "GPA" importance concept is crazy to me, because in my country I've never heard anyone ever being asked about it

I don't even remember my GPA because I've seen it maybe twice - once when I received diploma and second time when I've been going thru my documents and just wanted to check out of curiosity

It's so flawed metrics that I'd never even consider it as reasonable when interviewing people



In my early career I've had several recruiters who were very interested in me based on my resume, had several conversations and then when they found out my GPA said they couldn't place me.

Also had several jobs I wanted that required a certain GPA even 5-10 years into my career.
