[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We couldn't find a true safety in Boston that DC was willing to attend (and that we were willing to pay for - we weren't willing to pay for Suffolk).  Instead, if New England is the goal, look at U Conn, U of NH, U Mass Amherst, and Johnson and Whales[/quote]

OP back. Wow, I don’t think I’ve ever seen DCUM so overwhelmingly negative about a school! I’m checking it out because it is urban and has an Honors College. Hoping to find a place with some merit or lower tuition than the usual suspects like Northeastern. Thanks to all! [/quote]

I'm in Boston and we don't hire Suffolk grads.[/quote]

Why?[/quote]

Should clarify, we don't hire Suffolk grads for our internships/junior level roles - the ones we have hired in the past haven't had the chops to keep up with our other junior level employees. It's not like it's a written rule, nor are we that snobby (our best associate this year came from St Mike's), it just hasn't worked out in the 10+ years I have been at this company and at this point, we tend to pass on bringing them in for interviews since there never seems to be a wow factor on their resume that wants us to learn more. I don't have much dealings in the day to day of the junior level associates but sit in on the hiring process as one of the senior voices. Not willing to share my industry as Boston is a small world, but you can believe me or not, no skin off my back.[/quote]

OP here. Thank you so much for sharing your experience. [/quote]
