I appreciate your point, and don't necessarily disagree. However, I think it is rough out there even for ivy graduates.

We have an intern from an Ivy (not MIT) that isn't getting an offer simply because my company doesn't want to hire in the US right now. They are great to work with, knowledgeable, but have no future here. They have been shopping around, and a lot of people on the team have been trying to find a place for them to go in their network, but no one is biting.
