Behind the median

Everyone here with an Eng Scorer read, placed in their caliber tier.

  • 9%Exceptional4 people
  • 35%Strong16 people
  • 43%Solid20 people
  • 13%Emerging6 people

46 of the 46 people here carry an Eng Scorer tier.

Exceptional and strong are the top two of the five tiers. 20 of the 46 people here with a read sit in them, 43%. A tier is the band an Eng Scorer caliber score falls in, so this is the same measurement as the median on the caliber card, opened up.

Where they studied

  1. Carnegie Mellon13.0%
  2. BITS Pilani10.9%
  3. UC Berkeley8.7%

The 3 most listed schools among the 46 people here with a school on file.

Of the 46 people here with a school on file, 6 list Carnegie Mellon, 5 list BITS Pilani and 4 list UC Berkeley. A person can list more than one school, so these overlap rather than add up.

Public work

72%have a public GitHub account on their profile

33 of the 46 people here whose profile was checked for public accounts. An account the check did not find reads the same as no account, so this is a floor rather than a census.

Across the 325 companies on the map that can show this figure, the median is 38%.

Where they are now

85% of the people who have worked at The Apache Software Foundation and list a location live in the San Francisco Bay Area today, against 47% of everyone on the map.

Where they live now, from the profile as it reads today, not where they sat while they worked at The Apache Software Foundation: a metro here does not mean the company has an office in it. The lower strip is the same metros across the whole map, for comparison.
