How much does where you went to college help, or potentially hurt, getting a job?
Lately I've been reading a lot of "it doesn't really matter where you went to college after you get your first job" kind of things and "the cheapest school is the best option" answers from around the internet. Granted, these aren't necessarily from reputable sources and everyone's experiences are different, but they do make me second guess my college decision a little bit. I chose my school because I love it- the most important reason, but also because it has more resources and is in a location I prefer to my second choice school. It also happens to be more expensive. Whoever keeps on writing these kinds of things makes it sound like this "investment in my future" is a waste of money, and even though I know I made the right choice, how much of an impact will the school on my diploma make a difference in the future? #school #career #jobs #college-decision #college
