Discussion listed their job title as Senior Principle – Strategy & Operations
Rebecca Cline
First MBA graduate that I looked at for this discussion listed their job title as Senior Principle – Strategy & Operations. It appears that this individual is using their degree due to the fact that the description includes a significant amount of analysis and business strategies.
The second individual that I looked at listed their job title as Marketing Director. It does appear that this individual is utilizing at least an aspect of their MBA in their role. Throughout the course that I have taken so far in the MBA program, global marketing was one of the classes. Although her LinkedIn profile does not suggest that she is marketing in the global atmosphere, her concentration in her MBA program could have been more on marketing than other aspects.
The third individual I looked at listed their job title as an Engagement Manager. Although in the industry I work for, my initial thought would be that this individual is not utilizing their MBA, then I read the description under the job title, it became apparent that the individual is in fact utilizing her MBA. Not only is this individual leading teams, she is responsible for managing relationships with some very large clients.
The fourth individual that I looked at listed their job as Investment Banking Associate. This individual appears to be using their MBA. This position is a step up from an analysist and typically requires an individual to have an MBA. This induvial is likely creating complex financial models.
The final individual that I looked at listed their job as Senior Financial & Rates Analysis. This individual appears to be using her MBA as well. One thing that stood out to me, since I just completed the course Financial Statement Analysis, is that this is one thing she lists under her job description/duties. She also lists budgeting and forecasting as job duties.
Out of these five roles, the job of Senior Financial & Rates Analysis us the most interesting to me. I have been working in a financial position for several years now and love working with numbers. Although it gets a little hectic, budget season at work is one of my favorite times of the year. Not only so I get to work with numbers, but I also get to utilize the knowledge that I have in order to build budgets for communities. Although I do not have a solid plan for after I complete my MBA, I could see this role being something that I would enjoy. The company that I currently work for is growing, so there will potentially be room for growth in the accounting department, which would ideally be where I would like to continue my career at this time, especially until my children are older and are more self-sufficien
