[quote=Anonymous]Here is the thing-- after your first job you should never be dealing blindly with an HR person. You should be networking with decision makers and HR should be a formality. No doubt an Ivy education is a plus early on but it can also be a curse later in life. How you might ask? There is nothing that says loser more than a guy stuck in middle mgt at middle age who has a Harvard MBA, Law degree etc. people say things like "WTF is the matter with that guy-- can you believe he went to Harvard." You see this all the time. When it is up to you to "eat what you kill" as they say, degrees matter little and your abilities are what count. Meritocracy is alive and well in corporate America, consulting firms, investment banks etc. Ability to bring in business is what gets you paid the big bucks. [/quote]
