HR mgr here. I reject Eagle Scouts. Most are problematic and their parents have done the work for them. If I see 4H or FFA, instant interview.

How did I never realize that job interviews are just adult Board of Reviews

Fact. If I see Eagle Scout, FFA, or 4H on a resume, they are almost guaranteed an interview.

My ex-h was an Eagle Scout and never impressed anyone who wasn’t super old. These days, a lot of us no longer have a favorable view of that org. They fucked themselves over being exclusionary.

As an employer 4H (especially in High School) is even more impressive

Every Eagle Scout I’ve ever hired was the worst employee I ever had. I don’t know why but as soon they tell me, their Eagle Scout no higher.

I’m over 50 and it’s still on my resume. My son is an Eagle Scout and just finished college. It’s on his resume.

Can confirm. At my job interview for the company I’ve been at for the past 12 years. The hiring manager asked me more questions about my Eagle Scout project and about my engineering degree.

True. Sadly the Gold Award is not always seen as the same level but far fewer girls are able to earn it than the Eagle Scout.

The level of conformism required has been met. That's all college, military, boyscout, and other similar things provide.

Requires hard work and dedication to be an Eagle Scout

In order to become an Eagle Scout they will go through 15 Interviews with adults for rank advancements. How many 16 year olds do you know have done 15 Interviews in front of adults?

Sadly, as a Girl Scout with a gold that’s not necessarily the same. It’s the equivalent to the Eagle Scout and I have to explain what gold is every single time. And some people look confused even then

Boy Scouts understand hierarchies and goal setting. Eagle Scouts have planned and executed a project, managing people and resources. What else could a company want?

Is this a Boy Scout commercial? As a hiring manager and being involved in hiring I can say Ive never seen anyone care about non school or non direct work experience

Have you see this with Gold Award Girl Scouts (the Girl Scout equivalent to the Eagle Scout)

It probably depends on the field. Because if a grown man puts his Eagle Scout award on his resume, I am not calling him for an interview.
