The current state of the economy has many headed back to school for their MBA, hoping that after graduation, their employment prospects will be improved. But should you opt for the Jones and the Simons, or the Harvards and the Whartons? Will the regional schools get you where you want to go, or do you need the Big Name brand school to strike gold? In this show, representatives from regional schools will reveal the challenges – and the benefits – of getting your MBA in smaller classrooms, recruiters will discuss whether your career has to stay in that region if you start regional, and a pair of consultants will tell you what the recruiters are thinking, as well as give you tips for whichever path you choose – the regional schools or the big name schools – to guide you to success.
