Ivy League universities are often thought of as the crown jewel of early-career and entry-level recruitment, drawing prestigious companies to campus year after year. But despite the reputation Ivy Leagues have for top talent, they aren’t the only place to find qualified entry-level and early-career candidates.
RippleMatch automatically matches qualified candidates with entry-level positions and internships and screens candidates for initial interest. After reviewing candidates` profiles, recruiters that use our platform are able to reject or accept matched candidates into their interview process. We analyzed data across tens of thousands of interactions and found that students from certain universities were much more likely to to receive a first round interview than students from other universities.
Examining the composite data from the university recruiters that use our platform, we’ve identified the top 20 universities for early-career talent. We identified the top schools as those with the highest percentage of candidates "accepted" into a company`s interview process by recruiters from all industries, ranging from finance to consulting to manufacturing to technology.
The results reveal a preference for Ivy Leagues and colleges with low acceptance rates, but schools such as the University of Virginia and Howard University also cracked the top 10. Read on for the full results.

브라운 지못미노 근데 Howard university 좋은 대학인가요? Black ivy라고 듣긴 들었는데
하워드는 흑인만 가는 대학임. 합격률 50%정도. Howard University (HU or simply Howard) is a private, federally chartered historically black university (HBCU) in Washington, D.C.
브라운의 학점 인플레이션을 기업들이 잘 알고 있을거임 ㅎㅎ. 스탠과 MIT도 학점 뻥튀기하는 학교지만 기업들이 몰려있는 실리콘밸리와 브스톤에 있는 덕을 톡톡히 보는거고.....

이 링크글을 보니 MIT 학점 인플레이션 학교 맞네
듣던대로 회사들이 아이비를 좋아하는구나. 코넬 빼고 몽땅 탑 20위 안에 다 들어갔네.
코넬은 농대 같은 비인기 전공들이 평균을 깎아내리기 때문에 이런 통계자료에서 낮은거지. 코넬 공대나 경영학 전공자들은 아이비답게 취업률 깡패야
놀웨 듀크가 꽤 높네 - dc App
코넬은 순위에도 없네...
하워드는 PC bullshit 때메 저위치인거 아님?
그런득
오스틴 시라큐스 커네티컷이 있는건 너무 의외같다
학교 위치도 중요함
