[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am a corporate recruiter who has specialized in college recruiting in my career.

I hired MBAs from top schools incl Ivies and the very good ones like Duke/UVA.

Repeat this after me - College is only college.  There are 1000000 kids who graduate from a top tier university.  In fact, I swear to you, everyone recruits from all the schools even lowly Radford (where DH graduated) :)  Talent is needed everywhere.  Now, I grant you, certain companies recruit out of certain schools.  When I was at Northrop, we did VA Tech annually.  But everyone is recruiting out of almost all the B/C students and furthermore, even if you weren't recruited as a senior in college, if you apply to a job you might really like that and you had good internships and know how to present yourself, I GUARANTEE your kid will find a job.

College is college.  You have to actually build a career and move up the ladder and that is NOT something college will give you.  It's never where you start, it's where you end.

I agree! Jobs are more about "how do you show up, present yourself, social skills than where you went to school.

SPend money on therapy and life coaching for having your kids meet their highest social potential.[/quote]
