Thoughts on CVS Health?
I had a interview with the partner where in the last few minutes he mentioned they are taking their time with the process and a final decision might be made a month or two from now so I shouldn’t be discouraged if I don’t hear back for some time. I first submitted an application a month ago. What could this be about?EY

Graduated from a T15 MBA this Spring. There were many people in my class with 8-10+ years of work experience. Despite being a minority, I don't think it's viewed negatively.
Go for emba. Do you want to compete against 25 year olds for summer internships at the age of 32???
Pretty much need t mba if you want to pivot at all.
Based on what I’ve heard, it’s on the high range. They want to see candidates with strong trajectory but they also don’t want candidates with too much managerial experience. These two things are in conflict with each other at 8 years. So it depends. 8 I’m sure is totally normal, tho. I think 10 realistically is too, but it depends.
I matriculated to a T10 with 8 (non-vet). Admissions liked it because I had a clear story/goals that aligned with proven school recruiting outcomes.
The main thing to get used is having classmates that have less experience and maybe even no people mgmt experience as peers. I saw the YOE became more apparent during recruiting when recruiters assume you’re a typical student with 4 YOE but then you get into your pitch they’re surprised (usually in a good way)
I’d say at 10+ an exec MBA makes more sense. Unless you’re a military pilot since those service times are 10 years and the pipeline to FTMBA is proven for them
