Which Type Are You?

Typically, MBAs find jobs via one of two means:
     1. Through on-campus recruiting, or
     2. Via an off-campus job search.

At a minimum, you want to know a few key things about the company you are inteviewing with. The library can help you answer questions such as:

What has been written about the company in the past few weeks?
Who are the key executives?
Which firms are the company's top peers?

For off-campus job searchers, you will also need to create lists of companies to target and the library can help!
