 What will influence our choice(and yes, you often have to route around HR), is are you a self-starter and will you do the job assigned? Many organizations are flat: there isn't much "up". Someone who is burning with ambition to advance in the organization fast is not as useful as someone who can identify the context of the job and do it without as much training and handholding. Where the domain of the business is complex, we need them to focus. If they are always playing games to advance their careers or to get ready for their next job, we prefer them to play elsewhere. There isn't enough time. We need them to work and we want them to stay. But they have to make the decision to stay. We won't give them Starbucks, free food, trips to Hawaii, and so on. Too many ways to shred the natch and if we don't want to be hiring and laying off a lot, we need throughput. Programming has become a trade in some aspects. Imagination is needed but the shape of the thing to be created is known; we need imagination in the details and the willingness of the person to learn the exotic things on the job or at home.
