[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It’s much easier to get to that level if you go to an elite school.  Investment banks are not on campus recruiting at U of Richmond, that person would have had to network really hard and get v lucky if he got that job out of school. If he went to an elite school and got good grades he could sign up for informational interviews on campus with 5 banks and not need to do the networking or get lucky. [/quote]
It is actually more interesting than informational interviews on campus. Investments banks have programs where they invite top applicants to visit their offices for a couple of days. They pay for the plane tickets and hotel, tell them about their business and interview them for the summer internship positions. I know a sophomore at a T10 college who traveled to so many places at the investment companies' expenses, received multiple offers and continues traveling because it's so much fun to visit places for free. I'm not sure if the GMU students have such an experience. [/quote]
