[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The career services dept at my Ivy was not helpful, and many of us were useless when it came to networking. [/quote] ^This. One of the main purposes of attending Ivies is to have access to a much better network than UVA or UMD. The problem is that most people don't know how to take advantage of it.[/quote] There are networks within schools. Fraternities, sororities, athletics (e.g. lacrosse), and specific schools (e.g. business) provide networks within colleges. If you are trying to get into a field or an area without much coverage from your school, then it might be limited. Career services departments are more oriented toward current students than for graduates. Activities for graduates are more through the alumni organization. [/quote]
