Q:
Not sure if there are any others out their in the same boat, but I'm curious if anyone else is or will be attending a top 20-30ish b-school after previously attending a top 5-10 UG. Obviously our existing networks will be a big help, but how do you think you our resumes will be viewed in the post-mba market place? How will our chances for top jobs compare to those with no-name UG degrees, but big name MBAs? When you see job listings specifying Ivy League/Top 10 Bschool Graduates do you think our resumes will still qualify for a read or be immediately tossed in the circular file? How legit is it to attend recruiting events (particularly MBA level recruiting events) at your UG institution?
Thanks
A:
MBA students normally have about 5 years experience already that undergraduate is a long history far away from now. It's normally less representitive since MBA is the real battle field that almost 5~10 times more intense than UG.
Recruiters generally more focus on MBA competence and school strength. Also alumni network in MBA field will be more powerful and relevent than college one. While as always, school name is only a ticket to get interviews, not offers. Recruiters select job candidates base on school competence at the first step, but the rest part is on your own. They'll probably be impressed by your UG if it's a top 5, but mostly it's MBA that matters. That's my personal observation from several national career fairs like NSHMBA.
