I wasn't referring to just myself or anyone specific with my posts. It's a general observation of the corporate hiring culture based on what I've seen in the companies my friends and I have worked for.
The stereotype is that if you're from a good school, you're entitled, you demand a high salary, yet are a slacker. But everyone around me who landed good jobs right after college never demanded a high salary, it was just offered to them after passing a stringent set of interviews. And none of them are slackers - these people worked their asses off just like all other fresh grads.
I wasn't trying to be condescending or self-aggrandizing, I was just sharing my opinion which goes contrary to the stereotype mentioned here.

March 2nd, 2019 09:56 AM #575My observation of my colleagues is that i terms of workmanship, those from the lesser known schools can be at par with those from the top tier ones. However, what I notice is that those from the former seem to be satisfied with their lot (ok na ito kesa wala, etc.). The latter on the other hand have more ambition.

March 2nd, 2019 10:26 AM #576my comment is,
"top-notch schools do not hold the patent to intelligence."
"and they are not immune from 'sub-par' graduates."

Agree. Work experience is a great equalizer.
Later in life, school may still be intimidating; but relegated to being just bragging rights.
Agree, but in my field, i have less encounters with them. Maybe because they are relatively few in number?
From what I've observed doc, hunger and drive (kapal ng mukha at tapang ng sikmura - both in a good-positive way) + EQ are equal major factors together with expertise for success ...

March 2nd, 2019 11:48 AM #580as rocky and pacman would say,
"he's hungry".
and what rocky's friend said,
"you lost your edge, champ. you're not hungry anymore."
but yes,
hunger ain't all. there has to be that innate mind power... which top-notch schools have an edge in recruiting".
it's a vicious cycle.
the school has to have good students to rank well in the academic rankings, so's they can attract good teachers and good students, so's the school will rank well in the academic rankings, so's school can get more good teachers and good students, so's they can rank well, so's.......Last edited by dr. d; March 2nd, 2019 at 12:25 PM.
