Is MBB hiring right now ?
Additional Posts in Confession
My boyfriend just found my vibe...
The new company I’m at now sent me an email from an email address that was HR@companyName.careers saying I was accepted for the position. They gave me paperwork to fill out and sign to accept the position
I fill out the paperwork and send it back to them and it goes through… then a few days later I go back to the email to say something else and I get this…?
Then today I got a check from the company In the mail to setup my home office, and it’s signed by someone I’ve never met before or heard of…?
What…..

Anyone with “MBA” after their name definitely didn’t go to M7 or T15 aka worthless piece of paper
Agree. Never put it after my name. It got my foot in the door out of grad school and has a spot on my resume, that's it.
If you (only) have a masters of any kind and include it in your email signature I will immediately think less of you. Just saying
Does it matter how it comes up? Not something I generally bring up, but a common way it comes up for me is if people are talking about where they attended college and I say I did my undergrad at ______ and grad school at ______.

No, I’m talking about the person who starts with that as of everything they say is correct or the word of God and follow it up with being defensive, egotistical, and loaded with downright douchebaggery. You sound like a good guy. cheers.
Strict rule of never hiring anyone that puts , MBA on their name for the rest of my life 🤣
What is your graduate degree in OP and why do you choose to leave it off your signature line?
I use mine only on a book because publisher insisted on it. I think it looks weird.
Some people busted their butts for years to save the money and go through a part time program while working and pay for it for years later. They’re proud of their accomplishment, and should be. I find “these types” are more likely to put the mba in their title.
Did you read beyond the first line of my response AM?
Also do you feel the same way about MD, JD, MS, RN, CPA, NP, MCSW, MSW, OD, PhD, and PE? Or is MBA unique in the world of title douchery?
Only time it’s worth putting in is when you’re in school to attract recruiters. After that first postMBA job, it’s kinda useless

The only place is exists after my name is in my company email signature. It’ll be the same for certs because my clients like to see it and everyone I work with does the same. I couldn’t care less either way.
