[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's true. When I hire, I don't look at GPA and sometimes being Ivy league makes me less interested in hiring the person. I'd rather get a scrappy Big Ten grad who I know will put in the time with the low level work to learn, vs an ivy league kid who is spoiled (not that this holds true for every big ten or ivy grad).

Oh you sound like a brilliant hiring manager. That chip on your shoulder is affecting your brain function.[/quote]

+1. Wonder if PP always bases her hiring decisions on tired stereotypes.[/quote]

Haha. I agree. I'm a college career director and I always tell applicants to avoid the HR people and try to work their way around them because some of them have the same dumb ideas as this poster. Oh, let me just hire the dumbest people I can and certainly avoid hiring any Ivy grads...because they are probably too smart and I'd be threatened. I hope this was a troll poster because I can't imagine anyone that pathetic and envious.[/quote]
