Importance of Name Recognition

I appreciate the feedback. I don’t know if I care as much about “lay” people, but do local & state accounting firms recruit students (or even just hire students/interns) from the university? Or does a local insurance agency hire a liberal arts grad from those universities? So it’s less lay people in general vs the local employers. But you’ve inspired me to start another thread… (which is here)

And it seems this post may have been posted in the wrong forum. I consider this a subject of interest for College Search & Selection, but is this forum just for finding a list of colleges or choosing from amongst colleges? If so, which forum should this be under?
