At T15. Struggling pretty hard right now. Everyone in my cohort is struggling. The market for white collar jobs collapsed last year and this year doesn’t look bright either

Didn’t go to a top 15 school, had a MSFT, Deloitte & Google offer before graduation

That’s amazing, congrats! I’m at a M7 and everyone around me can’t even get an internship interview for MSFT or Google. In your experience, would you say there’s less or more full-time seats compared to summer internships?

I personally struggled to get a job (that I wanted) immediately post MBA but I got one during the summer, about 2 months after graduation. I think close to 95% of those looking had jobs by then.

Congrats! And that sounds like a good number

I struggled to get my dream offers but did end up with several offers for other roles. Overall getting a job is much much easier than after I went to an unranked undergrad.

Incoming MBA, I have my tuition paid for and rent covered (I will be an RA). So the only thing I need to pay for is food and entertainment. Do you think 20k is enough to last me through the 2 years? I will make a little money interning in the summer, so that would be a safety valve if I blow through the 20k.

Or… should I take a small loan?
