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!
