"Least Influential Factors When Evaluating Resume of New Grads (<7)
Tech/Science: College Reputation"
@Data10 - I wonder if we know whether the hiring manager or recruiting/HR filled this one out. For hiring managers, no doubt, college reputation does not matter, as when they’re filling the survey out, they’ll look at their organization and see people from all over, and also know they did 't care about college reputation when making hiring decisions.
However I wonder if new college grad (NCG) recruiters or HR personnel at these companies care a little about college reputation, where they look at say the USNWR top-10 for engineering/comp sci and place candidates from these schools at the top of the stack for the hiring mgr to review - Stanford, UCB, MIT, CMU, Michigan, Illinois, Cornell, Purdue, Texas, GA Tech?
