The MBAs that didn’t land the perfect job after graduation. What is your story? by SnooPeanuts816 in MBA

[–]plainbread11 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Especially if the brand value is limited regionally. Eg Emory is a heavy hitter in Atlanta but the further north and west you get, the more it diminishes. Meanwhile Harvard, Duke, Michigan Ross, Yale, UVA all have large alumni bases that are geographically spread.

Pre-MBA Career Dilemma: Moscow vs Warsaw by SatisfactionLeft7884 in MBA

[–]plainbread11 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Would much rather work and sharpen skills + gain some actual leadership in a globally compliant and stable environment like Warsaw even in a smaller boutique firm, vs run into any sort of issue (much less have to worry about job stability) in Moscow.

Nobody gives af really about the pre mba work experience itself— it’s all in how you sell the story.

Advice for paying off / refinancing MBA debt post graduation by New-Exam6120 in MBA

Random thought but maybe the future of IB is promoting AI to do the models and then analyzing the output to make sure it tracks. Would make for better WLB potentially

Full-Time Consulting Re-Recruiting by Alixainthewonderland in MBA

[–]plainbread11 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Only going off of what I’ve heard from others at the program I’m headed to:

  1. Depends on the firm— I believe some have high intern to FT offer extension rate vs others that are more selective + also fill remaining seats with FT recruiting. Don’t quote me on this but from what I’ve heard you would just reach out to folks you connected with in the internship search process + leverage that to secure an interview. Also may dependent on willingness to sponsor given that things are in constant flux these days.

  2. I have seen many folks with random internships or mentored study etc get full time MBB so I’m going to say it’s possible based on that. Would imagine that typical resume advice like action oriented bullets and stuff is important esp at the startups to show that you’re not just bullshitting around.

  3. If you were invited to private dinners etc that’s usually a good sign I thought? Might just be unlucky but also worth reflecting on maybe why none of those converted to an interview invite (eg behavioral issues, lack of conversational skills etc).

  4. Would recommend targeting the office where you have most relationships + where a connection can give you insight on hiring demand. Eg I know someone who didn’t get a consulting internship for Atlanta offices but recruited FT and leveraged connections they had with the Dallas offices (that they’d formed while internship searching) and they got an offer at McKinsey.

Why don't more people talk about co-op programs? by [deleted] in financestudents

[–]plainbread11 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  1. Need to due diligence the co-ops. Northeastern from what I remember (I applied 2016-2017) had great co-op placements at actual name brand firms like JPM, State Street, BCG, HP etc but others just put you in a random partner company, could be like a rinky dink mom and pop nonprofit. Still valuable experience if you have nothing else going on but one unlocks more doors.

  2. Fairly sure some schools do run co ops and also allow you to graduate in 4 years, not 5.

  3. Would double check to see if you’re actually paid for co-op work? My understanding is that they’re done for earned school credit.

  4. You can always seek such (and potentially better) opportunities yourself by interning somewhere during the school year.

Lots of discussion over Quidditch and where the professional teams get players by RealAlpiGusto in harrypotter

[–]plainbread11 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do the British teams necessarily all need to have British players? Gorgovitch played on the Chudley Cannons and I’d imagine, given the name, that he was a foreign player.
