Standby for a seat means they can't assign u a seat. If your are high on the list u should get on the flight.

Standy for upgrade means u are in line to get a better seat but things wont clear until closer to boarding time.

You should be able to get a standby boarding pass to get you through security if your app doesn’t give you one

It means you don’t have a confirmed seat on the flight. There should be a list of people waiting and a # of seats open on the standby list. If your position on the list <= the number of seats you’re good.

Is it common for Big 4 to hire from ordinary colleges? I’m genuinely curious since not a single partner that I’ve known comes from a Ivy League and almost all of them have a single degree. Culturally this is slightly odd for me since I come from a place where u needed to have pretty strong credentials to get hired and people at the top had them too, if not better. Wondering if this is just skewed view due to the practices I’m exposed to or is actually common in the big 4?
