@pwc1 MBA isn't the only way to switch careers. Networking with people in desired field is a good place to start before diving head first into another degree + potential loan$$

If you want to do something else in business as an employee: MBA and switch careers
Otherwise: quit and start your own business

You can also do internal audit and then transfer into the business...

I'm in the same boat OP. I'm in between interviewing at another B4 as a safety net and trying to start a business.

What if you already have your MBA (it’s not from top tier school)... career options?! 🤷🏼‍♀️

I have a in person(online, 4 hours - 4 people) technical interview coming up and I have been practicing my coding for the past 3 weeks. The only thought I've been having is "what if I can't solve the coding question?" I am still fairly new to the software engineer scene and the position is for a level 1 software engineer.
Does it essentially end my chances if at any point I can't solve the question? I mean I will definitely attempt to talk it through, ask question, but no progress in code. 🤷

Any suggestions on what career steps I should take?
