I graduated in 1997, a boom year, where students had an average of 3 job offers,
including myself. Summer internship opportunities were highly competitive and I
had to go to London on spring break to ensure an offer through my own contacts
prior to Wharton. However, the Wharton alumni network is phenomenal and other
alums almost always will talk to/ meet with students and other alumni who are job
hunting. I used my Wharton network well now 6 years after graduation for
recruiting, job hunting and finding clients now that I am in private client
services.
Campus recruiting was well organized and had as many firms represented in
different industries as you could expect in a great recruiting year. Prestige
with employers was top notch, based on the recruiting process and ranking of the
school. Career placement resources were very good, lots of company information,
info on how to conduct "case interviews" with consulting firms, lots of contacts
to follow up about jobs. The Lauder Program, a dual major program for also
getting a Masters in International Studies, was particularly good at placing all
of their group in international summer internships.
