[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]News Flash:  Where you go to school does not matter, who you know matters.

DD plays soccer at UNC and gets several internships opportunities including one from Citadel.  Her BFF is also on the team and the father is an EVP there.  [/quote]

Luck is an important part of the whole equation as in everything in your life.  
Where you go is also an important part of the equation.
It's a function of many variables.

It's also about simply building your own connections.  My 2nd job came as a promotion/move into a "hot area of technology" simply because of a 2 hour conversation I had with my seatmate on a plane ride.  Turns out the guy in the middle seat was an expert in that field and worked for the same company as me, so when I finished grad school I contacted him and had a new position within a week. Had I not had that plane discussion I'd never had that job.  [/quote]

So again you got really lucky.  Congrats.
