3,18 isn't bad. It's certainly below median though.Anonymous User wrote:Please don’t go after individuals by stating K&E got a bad haul of UT recruits.
Blanket assertion noted.You obviously don’t know what you are talking about.
Nor does LW hire someone just because someone with a GPA of 3,54 or above walks in. That's just the threshold to get the foot in the door, and KE's threshold is significantly lower. I wonder why that is?Also your point on grade cut off isn’t strong. I don’t know if that is the cutoff, but just because someone makes the grade cut off doesn’t mean we hire them.
I failed to mention that because it's demonstrably false. You might wanna check with your recruiter to confirm the actual %. Hint: it's lower, currently. Hint 2: in 2017 (which goes with the reported GPA cut-offs, all of which your recruiter can verify) it was significantly lower.You also failed to mention that UT forces firms to take 75% of their OCIs by blind lottery.
What's the last time you've talked to your recruiting unit? KE Houston has its own allotment of interview slots. 42 to be precise. KE gets more slots for the nationwide recruitment, and an additional allotment of slots for the Dallas office (21, to be precise). It's Latham, with its much more demanding GPA cut-off that (1) doesn't allow people to interview for multiple locations and (2) has a single allotment of interviews.In order to get exposure to the number of students we want from UT, it would be impossible to get a wide spread of personalities in the other 25% without having a generous cut off, particularly when you keep in mind we are also recruiting for our NY, West Coast and Chicago offices if UT students want to go there.
But again, don't take my word for it, contact your recruiting team and they in turn can verify those exact numbers with UT's career office.
tl;dr on: what's the caliber of KE Houston's current associates?
2L anon posts Chambers ratings and GPA cut-off points.
KE associates respond with: conclusory assertions, uncalled for ad hominem attacks ("you have some ulterior motive"), verifiably false numbers, macho imagery ("erection"/"wet dream"/etc. and that's just this page).
