About this episode
What are the most common industries that MBA students worked in before business school? In episode 4, Cherie and Jean discuss why Finance, Consulting, and Tech are the most common pre-MBA roles today from both the applicant and admissions officer perspective. Then, we share advice on how to approach your application when applying from any industry, even unconventional ones. Roses & Thorns this week include Jean’s plea for recommendations from Tiger Pack listeners for the biggest issue in her life right now. And we debut another fun new segment: Force Ranking!
