[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]As someone hiring for entry-level positions. I give a bump for local schools because those candidates tend to be more attached to this geographical area (so they might still leave for another position or grad school, but there is less "I miss my family on the west coast and I'm out). I've really encouraged our staff to put less emphasis on the prestige of education and more emphasis on personality and fit. We can train people to build skills but we can't change people who come in overly fearful of taking initiative, timid, resentful of authority. We had a Havard grad on staff who was an absolute toxic nightmare and I think that brought more people around to my point of view. [/quote] This all the way. I had a Yale grad that would cry for the littlest things. She couldn't deal at all. I really look for everything the PP said instead.[/quote]
