[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] https://www.thedp.com/article/2023/09/penn-careers-consulting-finance-wharton-college-post-graduate-outcomes Statistically more than 50% of U Penn undergrads go to finance and consulting because these companies recruit early in senior year. If it is really all just brainless work then why they go after top students with high entry salary when they can pay less and get it done by less talented but still capable college grads?[/quote] Ivy grad here. It’s about pedigree for when you sell your consulting services. It’s basically marketing: our consultants are Ivy grad and will come in and whiz bang your spreadsheets way better than some Penn State farm boy. There is nothing special about the work that requires the ‘best’ other than stoking client executive egos.[b] Penn State grads do actual work, it just PowerPoint slides.[/b] [/quote] +1 Who do you think is doing it at Deloitte or Accenture federal?[/quote]
