It’s true. There are brainless hiring managers who will greenlight anyone with a fancy school on their resume just like there are consumers who will fork over a month’s salary for a handbag with right logo. If you want to work for people like that, by all means, knock yourself out jumping through Ivy school hoops.

If you care about results, focus on results and the rest will follow.

I mean, the Ivies have a pretty darn good track record of 'results' too.

Where do you think are places with better 'results'?

Not trolling here, I am genuinely curious as to your metric and the places/things that fit it.

Kids that just graduated don't have any results to look at, besides the schooling they've managed to complete. With no other knowledge, if you had to choose between a kid with a stanford degree and a kid with a south harmon institute of technology degree, which would you imagine is more capable?
