Career Options after MBA in Strategy

by Puranimal » Mon Aug 12, 2013 10:27 pm
Hello,

What are the typical career routes for someone with an MBA from a top 20 school and a major/concentration in Strategy? And where do they usually end up 20 years after the MBA in strategy? From what I can tell, it seems like most folks converge to Consulting immediately after the MBA. But what if I don't want to become a consultant: what are my options?

Thanks,
P :)

::shrugs:: strategy is one of those broad roles where you can do a lot.... marketing... business development... operations... it just depends on how you spin your story to a corporate recruiter. 20 years out... who knows.
My goal is to make MBA applicants take onus over their process.
