Your MBA opens the door to consulting opportunities and potential interviews, you still need to prove yourself to the firm and then to clients.

Because nobody cares

This is exactly why lmao

Why do you think that you are above case interviews? If you are good at what you do, they shouldn't be an issue for you.

because having an MBA doesn’t mean you’re a problem solver! get over your high horse

Only an EMBA would say something like this lol

Ladies, how do you take care of yourself when you fly? Specifically as it relates to skin care and bloating. My body is super temperamental so when I travel anywhere, my face breaks out like crazy, including painful cysts. My whole body swells up with about 10lbs of bloat. As a result, I just feel miserable the whole time and when I get home. I drink water but is there anything I can do to prevent these things?
