| usc was HIGHLY represented in the pwc internship class this year, I still stand by my figures because i have seen all the people who got offers in the same room together at a pwc internal event.
pwc likes to snag up all of the top talent because that is their primary recruiting objective. look at the PAR reports, professors survey ranks pwc #1 by a wide margin at recruiting the highest caliber students. deloitte comes in second, but again, recruiting objectives means a diverse or non-diverse population represented from different schools. deloitte is HUGE on a being a good team player, I believe thats their #1 criteria on hiring.
keep in mind, the big 4 is like one big firm, i was asked by pwc what firms i received offers from and they were VERY assertive on finding that out before they handed out offers. they don't like handing out offers unless there is a high probability that you will go work at their firm. if you put out all of the candidates from different schools in a large sample, you would be correct, usc OVERALL would represent a greater majority, but collectively, not by much. i only use my figures to speak for pwc. |
