Which option would make my MBA application look better to ad com? 1. Stay at the same company another 2 years, but likely without a promotion; 2. Jump to a new company for higher position and pay

I would be applying in a few years.

I’d gotta think the second option is better. Even better would be taking a step that gets you closer to your post-MBA goal. For example, idk your situation and goal, but if you’re currently covering industrials, and your offer is covering tech, which is the industry you want to pivot to, that makes a ton of sense

Higher position looks better
