Today, I attended a banquet at my school and happened to sit with some professionals from EY. Whiling chatting, I asked one guy, my alumnus, which schools EY New York headquarter campus recruit team would focus on. First, he said that he noticed only a small fraction of people were from my school, a local school in NYC but has close relationship with all Big 4 and ranks top 20 in terms of the number of alumni partners in Big 4. Then he told me that, as he observed, a big number of the employees are from Notre Dame, U Michigan (if I recall this correctly), U Virginia, and UT-Austin. Eventually, he mentioned Fordham and NYU as two schools in New York. I didn’t get chance to talk to the CEO of PwC, as I was not motivated and bunch of students, including Chinese, were asking him questions, otherwise, I might be able to learn or at least overhear something about PwC.
What I try to say here is that Big 4, like other giant investment banking firms, might still like to recruit employees from academic wise better schools. Students at schools which are of relatively lower academic reputation but locate at a metro area might be able to get more opportunities to interact with firms; however, the chance of employment would not be consequently higher. This made me recall the conversation I had with one senior from Goldman Sachs several weeks before. He told me that they used to only recruit employees at top schools and recently they started to accept more students from local schools. But I don’t think they would recruit a big body of employees from such local schools. |
