MSF and Mfin grads: Do you plan on getting a MBA?
Trying gather as much information as I can on MSF programs but I have been wondering if those who choose to go that route also try to get a MBA later since MSF programs aren't for associate hires? I think a MSF at a top program is good for high achieving people who went to non-targets but for one reason or another weren't able to get in a FO role. I think it would be a good option for myself in a couple years if things don't go as planned and I wouldn't be surprised if I would be able to teach at the local community college since it is technically a master's program.
Seriously, MS for that? Wow. Good thing I turned off the messages for SB and MS.
Possibly. Really just depends on where my career is in 4-5 years and if I want to change paths.
I think that really depends on what you're doing after your MSF and where you start your career etc. I know people who got their MSF and went to work for McKinsey and then went to HBS two years later because they had McK pay for it.
@TNA" What are your thoughts?
I look at my linkedin and all the people I went to school with and others I know from various programs and I don't see too many people going back. Personally, I am not really sure. I wouldn't want to do a 2 year MBA program. I've looked at LBS and Northwestern. I thought Cornell's one year tech MBA was cool. An EMBA might be of interest in a couple years. Georgetown has a masters in economics that I find interesting. Other than that, I really don't have any plans on going back.
You really don't need to get an MBA to stay in finance. Some PE shops basically force you to do it, but I know people at a lot of strong MM firms that are just sticking around for the direct VP promotion. I guess it really depends.
Interesting. I just had thought some firms give people the boot if they don't get one or that they may peak at the associate level until they get an MBA. PS: I would cry tears of joy if I got in MIT MSF.
