Career Days in NYC

After Orientation, all full-time MBA and MS students have the chance to attend a career day for their academic program in New York City. The School arranges a bus and hotel rooms for all who register. For MBAs, the day consists of panels on:

• Consulting (operations, strategy and technology)
• Finance (corporate finance, banking, tax, valuation, private equity, asset management)
• General Management (leadership development, rotational programs, global opportunities, HR, entrepreneurship, analytics, and others)
• Marketing (digital media, brand management, analytics, product management)

This is a popular program because it happens early enough in the year to help you prepare for the national career fairs which can begin as early as August.

Career Fairs

We encourage you to go to one or two national career fairs to broaden your network beyond the firms that recruit on campus. The Simon academic calendar is built to accommodate participation in some career fairs and recruiting activities. We cover this topic in Day 1 so you know which options best meet your needs.

• Ascend/NAAMBA Leadership Conference 
• Asian MBA Conference
