[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]CS i can’t speak to, but - I have one kid at T20 and one at top SLAC - both say about 50% of seniors have jobs, and a there’s a whole lot of stressing and angst at this point. It’s not great out there for non URM kids, anecdotal evidence aside - you better have connections or be willing to grind.[/quote] Come on, this is BS. What schools and majors?[/quote]

both econ majors - as I said, I can’t speak to CS, which may be better, but my son called it a bloodbath.  Recruiting on campus was half what it was 2 years ago,
and ever dinner / coffee chat / group invite is geared towards diversity hires.  Almost impossible for non URM to land on Wall Street with no connection - regardless of whether it’s Yale at the top or Cornell at the bottom of T20[/quote]

Not the experience of my kid at Yale. Plenty of white kids without connections getting hired as always. Maybe the schools your kids go to aren’t as “top” as you’d like to believe [/quote]

Snob response. Settle down. [/quote]
