[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]NP. I think Ivy is beginning to be a negative on a resume. There are folks who won’t hire from Ivies any more because the kids are insufferable and not any better than state schools. [/quote]

mmkay. not true for any top companies. they all still target Ivies and stanford, MIT, Williams, and few others. Career outcomes pages available online confirm the top hiring at ivies are highly desirable companies with starting salaries averaging 90-100k for many majors. Only Berkeley comes close, as far as state schools, and that is because it is considered a target school for STEM majors.[/quote]

This is so ignorant of how campus recruiting works today, especially at top undergrad business schools.[/quote]

DP it is how my company recruits and many similar companies that target the same 15 or so schools. Math, engineering, physics, econ, and some other areas some years. Tech consulting. Undergrad business does not matter at all to us unless Wharton or MIT level. The quantitative skills need to be top notch. We expand our search if we do not find what we want at targets. [/quote]

Who cares how your specific tech consulting company recruits? [b]MBB, Goldman, JPM, [/b]Google, Amazon plus a whole bunch of others—you’ll find them at the top business schools across the country, and plenty of other good schools to fill regional offices (Chicago, Dallas, Atlanta, etc.). This isn’t the 90s anymore.[/quote] These companies 100% preferentially hire from ivy-+ targets for their top paying new grad jobs. [/quote]

They hire disproportionately from there but they 100% are recruiting at other campuses and filling roles from those places. And not a small number, either. [/quote]
