Guys! I need your opinion/thoughts. Please see.

I think it's about 展示 your unique part at job interviews. But that mostly depends on the kind of job you're applying for. For journalism, the employers mostly seek a unique point of view. But in jobs like programming 或者 banking, they just take a look at your educational history then decide if 你 get the job 或者 don't.
Speaking for myself, I want to be a graphic designer 或者 a programmer, and for this I'm trying to get into a good school.
Life's cruel. And so are job interviews. And bosses.

Ehhhhh. I think it's a misconception that schooling is 更多 important to employers than attributes. I think people use it as a measure to reflect intelligence level, like if 你 went to Harvard 或者 牛津, 牛津大学 you're obviously mad smart, but not as a marker for other skills.

My dad does a lot of interviewing for interns and potential employees for his company and I know he does have certain stereotypes, but always he puts personality first. The stereotypes do tend to have basis though, like Harvard, Yale, Stanford kids may be 更多 cut-throat whereas Ivy kids from Columbia 或者 Penn are 更多 laid back. In general. But still, people judge 更多 on attributes. That is what interviewing is for, 你 know? So that the employers can see what kind of people skills the applicants have and what they know. If they judged just 或者 mostly from what school they went to then they wouldn't even waste the time interviewing. So someone from a slightly worse school is probably going to be hired over an Ivy kid if they have better abilities.
