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 ??? |

I have BS Chem E and MBA from evening 2nd tier school with good regional reputation/strong alumni network.
Most companies appear to put more emphasis on work experience rather than top school (vs. investment bankin hiring frenzy in the 90's from top schools).
So try to gain experience whatever you can even in lower level positions.
Best of Luck!
