In a tight economy last year, both our Full time and Internship placements were
placed in the top 2 among peer (top 10 schools) programs in the US. Aside from
the traditional consulting and investemnt banking jobs (very few last year of the
latter), there is a real spike in the number of Marketing/Product Management jobs
in large companies and Start-ups. Several alumni such as John Reed (now head of
NYSE), Carl Yankowski (former CEO of Palm), Carly Fiorina (CEO HP) and other
advisors such as Michael Armstrong (former CEO of AT&T) have been strong presence
on campus in the last two years in refining the Sloan brand aimed at being the
place that develops "Principled, Innovating Business Leaders". Mckinsey
especially *LOVES* Sloanies, and I recall two senior directors of the firm say at
speeches that they never have to worry about Sloanies' intellectual rigor unlike
the program across the river which tends to be "softer". The CDO does a really
good job right from orientation till the time you leave!
Finally since Sloan is a smaller school the chances of being in a leadership
role for a club is significantly higher which makes it easier to differentiate
yourselves in a tight economy.
