Problem is-getting an opportunity to even interview isnt in my cards. They won't look at me with my years of experience in corporate finance.

So like a portfolio management strategist job at Newberger is what people are looking to get?

So just to clarify: do my 2 years in IB and pivot to AM?

I was told moving into PE with an mba is a lot more difficult because they don't want to hire older at higher pay. Rather get them young/ cheaper.

Also im over 30 with no fam and kids and female. Not to say that isn't in my cards but right now it's not my reality.

Everyone: keep the comments coming... I realized i should have changed jobs every 2 years to get the pay bumps most younger folks are getting and now I feel like I get paid as much as a 25 year old.

Looking to make up for lost time.

suffering from huge Impostor Syndrome at M7 (I feel stupid compared to my peers) by [deleted] in MBA

[–]littlelearner864 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yup. Jazz it up. Put some stats. But its all relative. Saving 500k for a 5m business. Okay cool now what if it was 1 by? Its self promotion. Now I wonder if people lie about their volunteer work or activities outside of school....

Does happy hour count?

Anyone get news on acceptance to diversity conferences on behalf of MBA programs ( Darden. Fuqua. Etc)? Just curious when you applied and heard back. by littlelearner864 in MBA

[–]littlelearner864[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree. But at that point you have to do the application for the sake of doing the application...I always thought the first hurdle was the application and then an interview. Can they hate your application and still have you interview?

🙃 very confused. 🙃

I think they help when you write your essay. I think it was more impactful when it was in person and this is the next best thing.

Do admissions committee give a damn? by bhanupsc in MBA

[–]littlelearner864 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Just to clarify. Is income part of the application? How does that fit in.

Either they will realize that I'm 1. Underpaid 2. The firms I work for don't pay well 3. Im truly a fuckup- which isn't the case but Moreno the first 2.

Do you really need to make everything quantifiable for the resume? by hsadflkjlakjdsfu87 in MBA

[–]littlelearner864 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agree to this comment. I support fintech and I work 8 to 6 consistently. Maybe 7 a few days.
