How good is Cornell's school of Industrial and Labor Relations for IBanking?

<p>I remember that on one of Cornell's ILR brochures, they said that many of their graduates go into IBanking?</p>

<p>Does anyone if this is possible and do big firms (or medium ones) recruit from Cornell's ILR (and not just AEM lol).</p>

<p>Thanks in advance for the answers.</p>

<p>Recruiting has gotten pretty tough lately. Lots of firms recruit both Cornell students and ILR students as well. Goldman Sachs for instance has a recruiting event for ILR students. Make sure you take some courses that are more business related and get involved in related clubs like investment club or something like that.</p>

<p>Wait. When you say tough, does that mean that it is hard to get a job as an investment banker from ILR? Or do you mean that recruiting has increased and thus it is very likely that an ILR student can go into IBanking?</p>

<p>harder for everyone in general to get an ibanking job</p>

<p>overall, ILR GPAs are higher than most. but most recruiters dont know how easy ILR is.</p>

<p>it doesn't matter what you major in to be in iBanking. They want well rounded students who have sought to take advantage of all the opportunities at Cornell and are passionate about something. I say it all the time, but nobody listens to me. I went to Cornell, I wound up on Wall Street, but what do I know. </p>

<p>Right now, it doesn't matter what you do, ibanking jobs are scarce. Firms are suffering and just not hiring.</p>

<p>Good God, from looking at CC's threads, you'd think everyone has OCD with iBanking...</p>

<p>I agree, now is definitely not the best time when it comes to new openings.</p>

<p>the economy is in the ****z right now...</p>

<p>take any job you can!!!</p>
