Being a career changer is really hard - business school is a good opportunity to lessen the blow but it still can be a blow. This is a really great comment – thanks for taking the time to write it.

I have one thing to add. As a frustrated job seeker and career changer via an off-campus job search, I am really disappointed at the lack of understanding in corporate America about the transformative power of the MBA experience, and the lack of receptiveness overall to career changers. If you've gotten into a top 10, or top 5, Bschool for their full-time programs, you obviously: 1. Did really well before school, or noone would have written your letters, 2. Are smart, as if your GMAT scores weren't high enough you wouldn't have gotten in, 3. have a lot of transferable skills, and 4. are committed to moving your career in a certain direction and will do whatever it takes to get there, including spending 100K and 2 years of your life on a new degree. It is certainly not the red carpet treatment I expected when starting business school. But recruiters and companies need to look at what the candidate did in school, instead of focusing on the experience that they don't have. What projects did the person do? What clubs were they involved in and why, what did they learn? And most importantly, do they have passion about the industry and role for which they are applying? If the answer to the last question is yes, then the MBA grad will do fine - you just need to hire them! And don't expect them to start over at a terrible salary in a new field either! Pay them what they are worth! My two cents... Thanks for posting this article, you make a lot of good points. I have one thing to add.
