Why don't "normal" corporations typically recruit Ivy League students?
-
I've noticed that half the companies that recruit Ivy League students are on Wall Street, and the other half seem to be magazine/publication-related, Silicon Valley, consulting firms, small start-ups, and non-profits. "Normal" (and very good) companies like Dillard's, Tyson, PepsiCo, L'Oreal, etc. don't seem to recruit Ivy League students. Why is this? I am NOT saying that these companies *should* recruit Ivy League students, and I definitely believe that Ivy League students aren't better than "normal people" in any way. I just want to know if there's a specific reason these companies don't recruit Ivy League students. Do they dislike the Ivy League's lack of practical, business-related courses? Do companies assume they'll be snobbish or unpleasant to work with? Do the companies think the students aren't interested in them? Also, are Ivy League students at a disadvantage if they do want to intern/work at these companies?

Answer:
Because Ivy League graduates expect greater starting salaries. They want 100k or more and normal companies start with an offer of 50k
