Consider a top tier MBA school a Berkeley, MIT, wharton… what % of the class graduates w/o a job? it is likely that you graduate from one of these schools without a job?
By the time you get into a good MBA program you would already have lots of valuable work experience, so don’t worry about not finding a job after you graduate especially since they on campus recruiting for MBAs.
Tons of on-campus recruiting for good MBA programs. My D had a bunch of interviews before she graduated–she went to Georgetown, which isn’t in the top 10–probably top 20-25, depending on who’s doing the rating. She accepted a job with an environmental consulting firm after she graduated.
job opportunities after an MBA:
1.Banking & Finance
2.Information System Management
3.Investment Banking
4.Management Consulting
5.Private Equity
It’s kind of a loaded question since the employment rate is also dependent upon how hard you try, but if you look at the career stats of top MBA programs, you will see the unemployment rate is relatively low.
