Oracle
Corporation hiring from top Universities in 2006
This Lisa Vaas article in eWeek titled "Oracle
Aims for Brand Name Schools for Recruits" notes that Oracle
perceives a huge difference between the quality of Universities and
suggests that Oracle has higher hiring standards than MySQL or IBM.
"unless you're coming out of MIT, Stanford or another of a
handful of brand-name tech universities, you're very likely out
of luck. Better go try MySQL or IBM instead."
The article says that an Oracle e-mail indicates that Oracle's
hiring universities reads like a register of the world's finest
Colleges and Universities. As the world's leading database, it
appears that Oracle Corporation knows that people with the drive and
persistence to graduate from a good school have the "right stuff"
that Oracle needs to stay #1:
"According to the e-mail, Oracle recruits "top candidates"
for product development from MIT, Stanford, CMU (likely Carnegie
Mellon University), Princeton, Wisconsin, Yale, Dartmouth,
Brown, Caltech, Berkeley, Harvard and Cornell.
In addition, the e-mail continues, Oracle will consider "top
candidates" from the University of Texas Austin, Duke, Penn,
Georgia Institute of Technology (grad students) and "any top
international schools,"
Other top
Oracle-related service companies also recognize that a employee
who shows the skill, intellect and persistence to graduate from a
competitive university is likely to be a great value:
"Graduates from
Ivy League
schools, retired military professionals, graduates of U.S.
Military Academies (Air Force Academy, West Point, Annapolis)
and those with active security clearances are highly desirable."
