Sadly, contrary to popular belief, it will have very little impact on their careers as a whole. Or, whether they make it to a major, legacy, or wherever they want to end up. Although many of us wish and pray the opposite was true. If by some chance the guy on the opposite side of the interview table ACTUALLY has a clue as to these specific operators, it may be a different story.
