i have been thinking...

Graduate School Business School - MBA

<p>anyways, i have looked at many recruiting calendars for some of the big time financial companies. I keep on seeing certain schools make almost all of the lists.</p>

<p>Harvard
Yale
Princeton
Stanford
MIT
NYU
Chicago, yes the U of Chicagooooo
Cornell
Columbia
UPenn Wharton and UPenn
Duke
Georgetown
Dartmouth</p>

<p>in no specific order</p>

<p>some of the surprising ones: Northwestern was on a lot of them, but didn't make the list as much as its midwest counterpart Chicago
Chicago made virtually every single list, even the ones that only recruited at 1 midwest school chose Chicago.
As much as the hype is about brown and dartmouth, they didn't make the list as much as some of the other schools.</p>

<p>Citadel, which recruits at only 8 schools, included Carnegie Mellon, NYU, Harvard, Yale, Princeton, Stanford, Chicago, and like 1 or 2 more</p>

<p>yeah citadel recruits at wharton too, a buddy of mine is working there. It's an awesome job.</p>

3

<p>yeahh sorrrry, ur right</p>

4

<p>Of course chicago will be on the list its called the Chicago school of thought!</p>

<p>Places like Citadel etc are tougher to break into due to the fact that their interviews cannot be "winged". You are actually given a C++ test and the interviews are very quantitative and require a good knowledge of the material.</p>

<p>uhhh, you're forgetting about the Haas school of biz at Berkeley...one of the most heavily recruited schools in the country!</p>

<p>(gotta hold it down for those privileged few of us on the CC boards who are cal students :D)</p>

<p>what about UCLA..</p>

<p>Citadel has been one of the biggest recruiters at MIT for the past few years. I think more graduating seniors at MIT ended up going to Citadel than going to Microsoft or Intel this year, and that's saying something.</p>

<p>I would actually expand that to include Berkeley in general.</p>

<p>A school doesn't have to be on the recruiting list on the company website to have on-campus recruitment. Many of these lists are either preliminary and/or outdated. Some lower-tier schools that you would never think would have on-campus recruitment still have the top firms show up.</p>

<p>How carnegie mellon in drawind recruiters, citadel aside, i am referring particularly to its undergraduate business program.</p>

<p>I am surprised your list does not include Michigan. When I was at Michigan, the top 30 or so IBanks all recruited undergrads and graduate students (not just from the B school) on campus.</p>
