  • Jobs after graduation
    From: jpb  May 30, 2012 Posts 4

    Hi,

    I have been listening to all of the available Lauder podcasts, and during them Dr. Marcy Bevan briefly talked about the kinds of jobs Lauderites accepted after graduation. She said that a good number end up working in similar roles for similar firms as general Wharton students, but in an international office (e.g. working for BCG in Tokyo instead of a city within in US).

    Can any current or past Lauderites provide any additional details or commentary as to how employment patterns are similar and different between students doing a joint degree in the Lauder Program and those doing only an MBA at Wharton?

    Many thanks in advance!

    Hi jpb,

    In general one beauty of the Lauder program is its flexibility:  you can choose a more traditional role in the US with a more informed global perspective, move to an entirely new region, accept work that requires a holistic global perspective, or deepen your expertise in a target region.  Lauder strengthens your case for each of these roles.

    Lauder provides a world-class international education in business, culture, and politics to prepare you for whatever globally informed role you're passionate about.  The global Lauder alumni community is close-knit and opens more doors to you.  What career goals are you considering?
