SA 28 Houston is full of Ivy and Targets

Man, it is just crazy how Houston Office R1 is full of west coast Ivy, UChicago, Notre Dame, Stanford (?) kids. Most of them do not even have any ties with Texas. It is just crazy. I don't recall even seeing kids from Rice, maybe couple from Investment Fund. It is just crazy

Which bank? That’s stupid. At my previous bank we almost only hired Texas kids (SMU, Rice, UT, TCU, A&M)

 

Most of them went to Kinkaid and Strake. No wonder they have connections

 

Am a sophomore at a non-Texas target school. The wisdom this year being passed on from upperclassmen at my finance club is that we should aim for Houston first to get an offer and then leverage that for New York when it kicks off later in the year. There are a couple of kids with Houston offers from my school already. I wouldn't be surprised if they renege in a month or two. 

 

you conservatives deserved to get c*cked. the more idiots hired from texas. the less international deals closed. if i could id staff all houston offices with ivy+ or west coast only
