Rage_fan, I don’t know about that. Wayne Rosing was the legendary long-time VP of Engineering at Google who just stepped down recently. Rosing is widely credited with scaling Google to the virtual supercomputer cluster that it is today. Yet not only does Rosing not have a BS in CS, he doesn’t even have a bachelor’s degree at all.

I think that the guy in the blog is either himself lying, or that Google lied to him in not telling him the real reason for why he got rejected. The fact is, not only are there are engineers at Google who do not have BS degrees in CS, some of them never even went to college at all.
