[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I reject Ivy leaguers from jobs all day.  My favorite hires are usually state school honors program kids.  Bright, realistic, and hungry![/quote]

I'd take a bright humble person all day long. Many ivy kids have huge egos, a chip on their shoulder, and a sense of entitlement that really grates on my humble Midwestern roots.  But being Midwestern, I smile, thank them for the interview, and fill the position with someone else.[/quote]

Ugh. I hate Midwesterners who have chips on the shoulders about people from the NE who went to good colleges. I’ve worked with several people like you. People from the Midwest who went to state colleges who somehow think they are morally superior people because they are from the Midwest. And yes, I noticed that you discriminate and hiring against people who went to anything other than a large state school, preferably in favor of Midwestern state schools. You need to get over this. Be honest, it has made me now be wary of working for people who went to Midwestern state schools and of up hiring them.[/quote]
