<p>My response is based on the fact that I come from an engineering family. My H, my brothers, and my BILs are nearly all hiring engineering mgrs, directors, and VPs for companies like Northrop Grumman, Boeing, DirecTV, Canon, and other Fortune 500. These companies do not limit their hirings to 50 schools or so. </p>
<p>And, they don’t pay engineers more based on where they went to school. The eng’r from UAH or Cal State Long Beach that gets hired gets paid the same as the engineer hired from GT or Purdue. That’s just the plain truth. And, it’s very frustrating for those who went into debt to go to a higher ranked school. Their colleagues are paid the same and they have less/no debt.</p>
