I will be graduating from a non-target MBA program (BC/Babson/BU) this spring and working for a F500 corporate strategy group this summer. I want to update my resume, but I have a question: how long should I leave my gmat score on my resume?
I got a 730 on the test, and it certainly helped me during my job search this past fall. However, I am not entirely sure that it would be useful from here on out. Any thoughts?

"MBA" type recruiting I would leave it on. Consulting firms, banking, etc.
For positions that you're applying to that are mba + a few years of experience (e.g., director at a company), I would take it off.
just my guess. not sure but that's how i would go.
I would leave it on as long as you have your undergrad GPA still on your resume. however, if I had to ascribe an arbitrary expiration date, I would take it off after 1-2 years of solid work experience.
plus, if you have a linkedin account, you can put it up there without being too obnoxious.
I would remove it once you're no longer recruiting from campus (sounds like now). It really can't hurt you, but it starts to look weird. If you decide to move within a year (esp. to pursue banking, consulting, etc.), then maybe you put it back on.
Okay, so it sounds like the consensus is to take it off of my post-MBA resume unless I apply to a consulting/banking role in the near future (which is not my plan).
Thanks for your help.
how can you get away with putting your GMAT on your linkedin without looking like a giant douche?
