Gifted Issues Discussion homepage Forums General Discussion which college and does it matter

For big consulting firms, big investment banks, big law firms, this has always been true. I am sure the super selective colleges are way over represented at big techs as well.

I am a bit surprised by Google, because I seem to remember they don't even ask for a bachelor's degree for their programmers. For one thing, it is easier to deploy interview questions that directly tests technical ability, much easier than some other fields. So the screening and signaling role of the fancy degrees are not as important. Maybe they only recruit from fancy colleges for all other types of jobs.
