Employers Are Souring On Ivy League Grads While These 20 “New Ivies” Ascend

Hiring managers have long used the reputation of a new college graduate’s alma mater as an indicator of an applicant’s ability and expected job performance. Elite national consulting, banking and investment firms focused their recruiting on the Ivy League and a handful of the other most selective schools. Big companies looked more widely, but still often favored a limited number of highly ranked universities. Regional firms would tap graduates of schools with the best reputations in their geographic area.

However, there are classes where propagandists would be studied (not as legit sources for info), but as actual examples of fascistic propagandists, and the harm done by false narratives that brainwash gullible viewers. Psychology classes might also consider the delusion of gullible viewers who don’t live in reality because they’ve been brainwashed by ppl who get paid to lie to them for the R ‘party.’

    American higher education is becoming trash in recent years. Most American colleges have become test optional in recent years. They have officially abandoned the traditional method of recruiting students based on objective standardized testing (like the SAT). Instead, they are playing a game which they call Holistic Approach that puts excessive emphasis on non-academic factors like extracurricular activities, teacher recommendations, college application essays, racial quota, legacy quota and first generation college student quota etc. Make no mistake. These things are completely irrelevant to a student's academic potential. Academic standard is dropping like a rock in America and it's no wonder why college graduates cannot find high paying jobs anymore.

They have produced nothing but little radicals that will be more trouble than they're worth, irregardless of whatever credentials they might have obtained (the sources of which having become questionable themselves). Our best recrutiing has been rural community colleges and state AG schools. They're teachable and eager to explore different aspects of business.

    Sorry, but this Elitist whining. the stark truth about the Ivy leagues was clear 30 YEARS ago. Lehigh University runs a non-profit that has tracked salaries and job situations for most universities and colleges across the nation since the 1960's. the data was % with jobs at graduation, 6 months after graduation and a year later. They also tracked the salaries that were reported. I used to have access and I can tell you that in 1992, the Ivy League university grads who did not go on to grad school AVERAGED salaries at the 60th percentile. By the '00's the vast majority of the undergrads went to grad school. I had a nephew who graduated in the early '10's from Princeton and he could not even get interviews. The entire Placement Department was a part time secretary. Why? Because next to no one bothered to recruit there. By contrast, my alma mater Lehigh University with 4500 undergrads had 29 full time and 14 part time employees for the Placement office. The Ivy's have been living on reputation for 50 years. Some of the grad schools are top notch, but the undergraduate programs leave a lot to be desired. I have hired people from about 50 colleges and universities and I have seen only a few people worth hiring out of the Ivy League. Far too privileged and far to arrogant.

    This interview is distorting the data. They are judging by high school acceptance statistics by Universities, not the employer hiring practices. I can say firsthand that the major Silicon Valley recruiters will almost always interview Ivy League candidates - even when, to technical people like me, they should be looking at different candidates. I have to conclude that this interview is mostly propaganda - an effort to get the Ivy Leagues to be less accepting to LBGT and other "renaissance" values, as our society tries to get modernize our values beyond simple greed.
