HA!  Do you REALLY think ANYONE is hired into a "high powered" job out of college? That is referred to as ENTRY LEVEL.  I'm talking C-Suite jobs.  No one questions the contention that strong college pedigree helps in obtaining ENTRY LEVEL jobs (which is what you, as a college career director, handle), the point is that one's educational credentials have diminishing value as they build a career track record. By the time it comes to C-Suite, Partnership, Managing Director hiring those credentials are nothing more than a PLUS factor.

In my experience, positions in the administration of colleges (e.g., college career director) are full of frustrated professionals who can't understand why their educational pedigree hasn't taken them further.

Different PP here, not the college career person. You are cray cray!

Or, you think your "clever" and you can change the subject around and "nobody will notice" and then we'll stop ragging on your sheer stupidity for the "I won't hire Ivy grads" comment. I'm here to call you on this BS. Nobody suggested that an Ivy degree is a ticket for life, anywhere in this thread. Instead, let's be clear: you're getting beaten up because everybody is responding to your stupid comment that you wouldn't hire Ivy grads for all these "high powered" positions you supposedly control.

Geez. It's scary to think that someone as dense and blinkered as you is in charge of hiring "high powered" managers. Then again, all the evidence (your writing style, your sheer ignorance) point to the conclusion that you're lying.[/quote]

Here is direct quote I responded to: [b]As a college career director I'm certain you know much less about 'high powered' jobs than I do.[/b][i]

Do you not see that as implying that PP thinks her position as "a college career director" gives her insight into hiring for 'high powered' jobs?  That is what I responded to.

You sound like a complete a$$hole. Nobody here believes you're in charge of more than flipping burgers.[/quote]

Perhaps.  But you've just been humiliated by a "complete a$$hole" burger flipper - have a wonderful weekend and don't forget to thank God for anonymous message boards.[/quote]

ZING![/quote]
