Google Analytics Hiring and Sheepwalking

So I came across something from the Google analytics page about hiring a new representative

To meet Google’s exacting hiring standards, you’ll need an outstanding academic record from a highly ranked university and have a history of professional achievement.

Which struck me as kind of humorous as I just read Seth Godin talking about hiring and Sheepwalking

I define “sheepwalking” as the outcome of hiring people who have been raised to be obedient and giving them a braindead job and enough fear to keep them in line.

I was at a Google conference last month, and I spent some time in a room filled with (pretty newly minuted) Google salesreps. I talked to a few of them for a while about the state of the industry. And it broke my heart to discover that they were sheepwalking.
