[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I would also add as a hiring manager that due to some of the factors laid out above it may present a bit of a hurdle to overcome during an interview.  [b]Program managers are very wary now of any graduates of the frat bro/lacrosse/field hockey ilk from a non-diverse background.[/B]  It is just not where the work world is headed.  And there are plenty of smart, educated individuals to fill the breach. Some of our most successful recent young hires have been from large state schools, generally, but not always flagships. And, I say this as someone who went to a preppy LAC myself.  I will say that across the years our most successful employees have completely ranged across the types of schools with some of the best from schools that DCUM isn’t fond of. So, from my multi-year perspective and due to my own background I’m not encouraging what I stated above, just noting it exists in those influencing and/or effectively deciding who gets hired.  And, I’m not going to say what industry since I don’t want to inadvertently “out” myself. [/quote]

I haven’t seen that at all. Like, if anything the frat bros are doing better not worse. [/quote]

np.  I could see that if they played a sport in college and had at least some mild success in it.  That kind of experience is valued in some sectors.[/quote]
