<p>Jefferies & Co., an investment bank with an office in Los Angeles, recruits at UCLA undergraduate, UCLA MBA, UC Berkeley undergraduate and UC Berkeley MBA but does not recruit at USC at the undergraduate or graduate level.</p>
<p>alright, im interning at both marcus & millichap and colliers seeley. both of which are strong commercial re investment firms. yet niether of them are listed on are career center website's list of employers: <a href="http://careers.usc.edu/students/ocr/recruiters.html%5B/url%5D">http://careers.usc.edu/students/ocr/recruiters.html</a> (though marcus and millichap is listed on berks career center site' list of employers)</p>
<p>so yes, that list is outdated.</p>
<p>i know for a fact lazard recruits here b/c i overheard a guy talking how he interned at lazard and didint like it, in the career center. but i know i cant really rpove this.</p>
<p>also, bcg doesnt bother to stop and present over at ucla, but they still seem to hire at ucla. so wouldnt it make sense for bcg to hire at USC even of they dont present at USC: <a href="http://www.bcg.com/careers/bcg_on_campus/AreaSelection/school_calendar.jsp?ID=868&data=%5B/url%5D">http://www.bcg.com/careers/bcg_on_campus/AreaSelection/school_calendar.jsp?ID=868&data=</a></p>
<p>why would goldman sachs and merrill lynch come to our campus twice in the school year while a small shops like jeffries and lazard dont bother to hire USC grads? well, jeffries and lazard do hire Marshall alum and in turn those Marshall alum make the effort to recuit more Marshall alum, as already proven by the Trojan Network. BB's like morgan stanley, merrill lynch, GS, and citigroup all recruit and recruit actively at Marshall. thatsa fact, jack. </p>
<p>and this also a fact: if a big firm has an LA or OC office, it recruits at USC.</p>
<p>If you have to go through other campuses for presentations, it's because the company presenting doesn't think that your school is a primary recruiting ground. For a large school like USC, not having McKinsey, BCG or a number of IBanks tells you that they value Haas more than they value USC. That's a pretty basic fact.</p>
<p>You need to relax, farbdogg71.</p>
<p>berkeley!it is the best.</p>
<p>hey i agree, haas does recruit better. but yall are way too harsh on Marshall.</p>
<p>now mckinsey, bcg, lazard and jefries (ive never even heard of jeffries)may not present here. that doesnt mean they dont recruit here. in fact mckinsey, bcg, and sg cowen alums are listed on Trojan Network, so they do recruit trojans. </p>
<p>but we do know the rest of the BB does like recruiting here. so do the top acct firms, since we have the best accounting program under MArshall on the west coast. </p>
<p>and the Trojan Network is a pretty damn pwerful resource. what you can accomplish at haas or ucla or anywhere else in terms of networking, i can do with far less effort and better results. networking is a beautiful thing. i think youll come to realize that.</p>
<p>but seriously, are you going to tell me that LA HQs of mckinsey and bcg only hire from stanford, haas, and ucla...and not at a certain top undergrad b-school down the street? b/c thats weak. and i dont they relocate east coast alums.</p>
<p>^hahahah so true MrTrojanMan. People really have to realize the importance of networking no matter how good your program is. Just look at Cornell recruiting compared to Georgetown recruiting. Georgetown is ranked like 27 in undergrad business and Cornell which is a comparable school is ranked 12th and Georgetown has much better recruiting because of its alumni network.</p>
<p>Its business get used to networking and not ranking because you won't make it.</p>
<p>To summarize what we've established so far about networking/recruiting:</p>
<ol>
<li><p>USC/marshall has better networking than Cal/haas </p></li>
<li><p>Haas is arguably considered more "prestigious" and makes the recruiting list of more TOP IB/BB firms than Marshall</p></li>
<li><p>Marshall is on as many or more recruiting lists for non-TOP IB/BB firms, especially in so cal</p></li>
<li><p>A firm can still recruit at USC even if it doesn't present here; active SC alums make an effort to hook up fellow Trojans</p></li>
</ol>
<p>haha this thread is truly insane. I don't attend either of these colleges but seriously, 10 pages of posts debating Marshall vs. Haas is almost useless. Both have benefits, both have disadvantages. In the end, it's not what school you attended, it's how ambitious, talented, and networked you are.</p>
<p>I love the way you lay it out, Trojanman720- Haas is arguably more "presitious" (notice those " "), but it's certain that USC/Marshall has better networking than Cal/Haas (no dependent).</p>
<p>But really, this thread is pretty boring. CalX has left for a while, so my guess is that this will die soon.</p>

<p>no dependent, huh? again, you make no sense</p>
<p>No conditional. I couldn't find the right word at the time, sorry.</p>
<p>still doesnt make sense.</p>
<p>Don't worry about it.</p>
