[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Heres the thing, everyone is right on this thread. I think it is situational and dependent on the field/location that you work in. If you work in a field where many boarding school alumni work, then it definitely helps. For example, putting Deerfield on your linkedin when your working in private equity probably makes sense. Putting Harker if you work in Silicon Valley probably makes sense. If you are looking to get a job in Philadelphia, having the fact that you went to a boarding school near the city probably makes sense. However, lets say you are an engineer for a federal agency, a boarding school in California is pointless on your linkedin. I think you should examine what message you are trying to put out and who will be receiving this message. Side note, I am not bashing engineers for the feds, I am an engineer for the feds.
