[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]For CS and related majors it matters more again (almost like the mid-2000s when today's parents were getting degrees). There are fewer entry level roles at the best employers, so there is more competition. For a while, people were thinking they should just go to the least expensive school and strategically pick a CS/eng major, but times are a changing in the tech and quant worlds.[/quote] disagree. Google used to hire only from certain schools. They stopped doing that a decade or so ago because they realized that they were missing out on talent. They even removed the degree requirement for software programmers. The CS job landscape is changing, but it's not requiring prestigious degrees to land a job. -former Googler[/quote]
