In response to "I would disagree completely with this statement. what do I know, though? I just have an MBA and am essentially an internal consultant now" by a-maine-da

oh really? see i was worried bc i'm not exactly sure what the career path for consulting is...

Posted by fedup Nov 24 '09, 17:37

like i'm pretty sure i want to do this program (2years min) and then get an MBA and try to do either marketing consulting or something re: strategy and competitive dynamics...(this is me saying this now b4 i get a taste of 100% travel and 80 hr work weeks)...but that's what i was thinking

but i mean, after you get your MBA, can you switch again to say Financial mgmt or another business concentration? i mean i would have no relevant work experieince in the other fields...just (hopefully) improved communication, information digestion, presentation skills...and hopefully better busienss analytics skills...

I would say that 70% of the people in my program returned to school to career-switch. an MBA makes it easy to leverage past experience - a-maine-da Nov 24, 17:46 3

  - financial consulting? or like, corp fi? huge difference. and what kind of accounting? CPA or no? forensic? - a-maine-da Nov 24, 18:03 1
    - right and that's why i'm so skeptical about this program... - fedup Nov 24, 18:15
