I understand that culture thing. However, IMO it does not follow that all graduates of these top schools have that "culture" thing engrained in their personality. I've a co-consultant here who's a graduate of UP and all of his co-workers agree that he is a certified, 100% *$$hole.

It boggles my mind that after 10 years of experience, school pa rin ang hinahanap nung HR na yun.
Kung ganun ka narrow-minded yung HR na yun, they can go screw themselves!
Parang incompetent din yung HR na yun ah... if the applicant has 10 years of experience, the school they came from is irrelevant already. Ako I don't even put my school on my resume (even if it's UP...) kasi *cough cough* di po ako nagtapos.

In our organization here in the company, I've always maintained the philosophy that there is "strength in diversity". However, I make sure that the engineer/s we're hiring has/have the technical capability, the drive to excel and the right attitude for the nature of work that we're doing. Even with different backgrounds, our TEAM is working cohesively to hit/exceed our goals.
Kaso, wala akong engineer or manager ngayon na galing sa university kung saan ako nag-graduate.....
BTW, all my managers, including myself, completed our MBA in one of the better business schools in the country....

That's why there are people who send their kids to the most outrageously expensive schools in the world.
They see the harsh reality of life. They know it's unfair out their. They dont go around protesting the unfairness. It's a given. That's the given playing field.
So they have to do everything they can to provide their offspring with better chances of survival.
That's why poor people cant get out of poverty. They cant compete with those who have resources.
Exactly like nature diba? Darwinian natural selection.

Naaawa ako sa mga parents na nagpupumilit ipaaral nila mga anak nila sa neverheard-hole-in-the-wall schools.
Dami mga iskul bukol na nagsulputan lalo na dito sa metro manila. Mga vacant floors ng buildings nirerent tapos may malaking sign "College of ________"
Wawa naman mga students and parents na kumagat sa ganun.
If im a resource-limited parent, di ko na papaaralin sa college ang anak ko. Ipaaral ko nalang mag welding.
Or ipaaral ko nalang mag mekaniko or auto electrical.

Madami kasing maangas na bata ngayon, ayaw mag welding or auto electrical.
Ako naman my approach is different: try to get them into the best public schools you can. I went through public schools my entire life, a bunch of forgettable elementary schools, Philippine Science, and UP.
Yun nga lang it's tough to get into the latter two.. (not THAT tough) pero kung di kaya ng kid ko.. i-di-disown ko sila!! hahaha

Common ang school discrimination sa atin. Our househelp has a brother who graduated with Education degree from a univ in Visayas. He tried applying in Manila and no one bothered to schedule him for an interview. I think nag-apply na lang sya as security guard. He studied for 4 years, has a college degree pero hindi din nya magamit.
