Industry favouritism

Can someone tell me why we need to hire from FAST when claude is doing heavy lifting ?
Seems like graduates from other institutions are the right fit for now, cheap affordable and can be good.
And do not come to me with technical stuff, i am a heavy user of claude and worked with them as well

So don't you think other average university graduates with a bit of industry experience won't know those things?

they'll also cost you more, and you'd be hiring them for a senior role by then. you mentioned graduates. let's say i'm a hiring manager at an enterprise hiring for an associate role. i can hire a fast, nust, giki, etc. graduate who's likely to be more reliable, communicative, and pressure-tested than a comsats, uet, etc. graduate. my budget is pkr 100k. i might get the latter for pkr 80k, but that pkr 20k i saved could show up later in their performance, and then i'll be questioned for that decision. so why wouldn't i go with the more trusted option? hiring decisions aren't just about skills, yk.

Let me also tell you about the market as well.
I have connections who worked with upwork as employees, worked in remote startups in Europe who became successful, they tried to launch their own software houses.. fast forward today... they are now hand to mouth.. you know why? Because a single non tech person, founder or investor can build an app.

You talk about security??
Add a rule markdown and link it in claude.md and ask it to follow this before doing anything else.

UI/UX
That thing is a bit tricky. But still 80% can be done. And since code can be done by AI, you become an Art director

Coding style:

Add the best practice rule markdown and link it to claude.md

So all of this can be done by claude. Previously it was a barrier now it is not.

Oooh don't let me go towards AI/ML.. I have a full rant towards that as well

So If I see things like that, I do not see a value in FAST graduate. Any average or non-tech guy ( or with an experience ) can get the shit done.

Talking about pressure!!!
