Hi All,
What a great forum you have here! I know that this will be the first of many posts...
Out of curiosity, what value do adcoms place on the reputation(s) of a candidate's previous employer(s)? For example, I recently turned down an offer from Deloitte Consulting to stay with my current company (a much smaller, but well respected energy consultancy).
All other qualifications being equal, would the adcoms at the Ivy League schools prefer a candidate from a big name firm like Deloitte, or would they look favorably upon someone from a smaller/boutique firm (approximately 300-400 employees)?
Thank you in advance for sharing your insights with me.
