I meant, absent the case where it's a genetics project and one of the
candidates has a genetics backgroundb for example. If you have two people
for a project in x, one with experience in x, one with semi-applicable CS
classes a while back, I find it hard to believe you would hire the one with
the college classes....personally.

true. But again, teachable in less than four years.
