Harvard Is Still Sending A Shockingly Low Number Of Graduates To Wall Street
According to the student newspaper, 61% of the graduating class already has a job secured. More graduates will be heading to Wall Street this year than they did last year, but it's still nothing compared to 2007.
Another 15 percent will be working in finance, nearly doubling the 9 percent who entered the sector last year but still paling in comparison to 2007, when before the financial crisis, 47 percent of graduating seniors went into finance.
What's more is 21% of seniors going into the financial services industry said they will make more than $110,000 their first year on the job, the report said.
Harvard's commencement will take place on May 30th.
