This is fairly tangential, but do startups and/or medium-sized companies place emphasis on education when selecting interns? As a student in high school, I see effectively no advantage to informing a potential employer of the fact that I attend a certain school. At best, it's inconsequential and yields no advantage to me, as high schools generally lack the sort of prestige that certain universities possess; and, at worst, it will deter possible employers who would be unwilling to permit someone like me to work for them. Is education significant among startups, and how can I maximize the allure of my resume vis-a-vis my education (or lack thereof)?
