Hi Lisa/Stacy/Amy,
I was wondering if you could please offer some candid advice regarding my situation. I am currently thinking about switching jobs and I was wondering if you could tell me how this move would be looked upon by MBA adcoms. Originally I was planning on applying next year and I hoped to get into investment banking or finance when I was finished.
Right now I am working as a Corporate Development Analyst in the professional staffing industry for a fortune 500 company and I have been with the same company for about 3 years (which makes up all my experience thus far). Furthermore, I mainly deal with corporate strategy and ways to grow the company organically. Also, with this company I have switched jobs once and although this wasn’t a promotion it was definitely a move up and I expect to be promoted to a senior analyst by next year.
The job I am thinking about transitioning to is as an entry level Business Analyst in the healthcare industry also for a fortune 500 company. My responsibilities with this job will include dealing with operational initiatives and some corporate strategy and the pay will be slightly higher than what I am making now. My main reason for switching jobs is to move into the LA area where my fiancé recently moved to and where she is going to school at now.
Lisa/Stacy/Amy, if you can please let me know how you think this move would affect my chances of being admitted to an MBA program I would really appreciate it. Thank you.
