Ask Clear Admit

I am currently working for a smaller commercial real estate firm as a financial analyst focused on Acquisitions & Asset Management of office buildings. I have been in this position for 2 years. There has been a lot of turnover that has given me more responsibility but no salary increase. I ended up getting a position as an Associate at Deloitte in their Real Estate Consulting Group. If I took the position at Deloitte, the position would start in the fall, a little before I applied to business school. My job right now is on the investment side, the job with Deloitte is more valuations but I would get to see a lot of different product types.

Would it look bad to switch jobs right as I'm applying or will a bigger name like Deloitte look better on my application? The job starts would start the first week in October and I am applying for Round 2 deadlines, so the beginning of January.

Thanks for the help

Hi Alex,

Thanks for the feedback. Also one thing I forgot to mention was that I accepted this job in April but the position starts with a new class of Associates in October. If I explained that I accepted this position in April but during the wait time I realized now is the best time for me to get an MBA. Would that make sense to an adcom?
