[quote=Anonymous]I’ve been on hiring panels and I think the most successful job candidates are the ones who express themselves well and who seem able to work with people from various backgrounds. Sometimes candidates from the most prestigious schools give off a subtle condescending, know-it-all vibe that’s offensive. I want employees who are smart, but can also work well with others and take direction. Students from lower ranked schools often shine brighter during interviews and are the better fit. School name recognition might help get you an interview, but personality will get you the job. [/quote]
