Hi, I'm stuck in a rut right now thinking about applying to an MBA program. I scored a 740 on my GMAT earlier this year and have graduated from a top school in engineering. And I've been working at an IT consulting firm for the past couple months; however, they have a no-reference policy there that I didn't know about until I started working.
I don't plan on applying for an MBA program until another 2 years, so I'm not sure what to do. Should I start looking for another employer? But then that kind of looks bad on my part since I've only been working at the firm for a couple of months and I hear that a lot of companies have been starting to use the no-reference policy. Or should I continue to work here and try and make good friends with my managers and try to get personal recommendations from them? And if I do get personal recommendations, does that look any differently from a regular recommendation to an admissions council?
What should be the best option for me?

"Target Test Prep is the closest to the official version of the GMAT exam, about 99% accuracy in terms of the quality and quantity of information. The course has excellently created singular sets of focused lessons and tests for every possible topic that one could come across in the official GMAT exam."
"The TTP course maximizes the efficiency of the time you spend studying. It will take time and effort but I could almost guarantee that if you complete the course exactly as it is laid out you will get an amazing score. They also have a very responsive team willing to help with any questions you might have."
"TTP has two things that I think no other test prep company offers: A teaching approach that reinforces understanding and an attitude that will give you the mental preparedness needed to succeed on the test. TTP gives you a deep understanding of the concept you need to know while teaching you how to think."
