Want to get an mba to get into a cushy tech position. Do people openly write about their tech goals in their apps? Feels like most post-mba essays are usually over-inflated.

AOs like to see goals that align with their schools’ placements. That means a good employment report, which means a good ranking, which means they keep their jobs.

If you want to M some P at Facebook and that school sends a lot of people to Facebook, you’re doing great.

Just make sure you have a good story and a convincing plan about exactly how that MBA degree is going to get you into tech.
