I have an MBA, and a MSc in engineering. I apply to entry, mid, an executive level positions, but companies don't even call me.
Companies claim to be looking for top-notch qualifications but guys with just a BSc are the ones getting the jobs. WHY ?
This job market doesn't make sense. The message they send is " don't go to the university, it is not worthy".
Anybody going through a similar situation ???
What's wrong with corporate America. They rather hire a guy with a BSc instead of one with an MBA and for the same salary. WHY ??? |

It is about having contacts. It is not about your education, or how smart you are, or how fast you can learn, or the many skills you bring in.
Getting a nice MBA job for $85-100K/yr is all a game. Is about where you went to school, where you did your internship. They don't care about you being smart, hard working, creative, being a fast learner, or about your other skills.
Corporate America will go down if they continue with this hiring mentality. Americans hire people that can show a nice FACADE, Europeans hire people with intelligence and creativity.
