@calmom But someone attending Middlebury or Grinnell is unlikely to stick around post-grad – where would they work?**
Perhaps NYC or Boston in the first case and Chicago or another midwest city in the second. I think recruiters not only know the reps and have connections (and alumni) at schools in their region, but it’s obviously easier for them to get to them, and for applicants to get to employers who are nearby (even if that means trekking out of the cornfields or mountains and traveling a couple of hours).
