[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Walk Street values brainpower and intellect above all else because that alone gives the firm “the edge” to make money. If a mediocre, over-prepped and over-tutored legacy from, say Yale, even makes it past the first interview, he will definitely not get past the second. They will sniff him out and see that there is no there there. Wall Street likes super smart, ambitious and often scrappy. These days they recruit engineering, math and cs majors way more than history and econ majors from Ivy/top schools. I can think of no successful hedge fund, private equity or investment bank head who is an Ivy legacy. Ivy definitely yes, Ivy legacy no. Your frame of reference is way out of date. [/quote] You guys act like the stats of legacies are much lower than non legacies. We're talking about 1450 vs 1500 here. I can see why these firms aren't ethnically diverse. [/quote]
