Post-Ibanking stint - startup or corporate for MBA?
I'm finishing up my 2nd year in IBD at a bulge bracket investment bank. I have a few options: i) U.S. expansion role at an early stage international startup (seed level consumer app company with pretty much unknown presence in the U.S. market), ii) a corporate development role at a more established startup, and iii) a corporate strategy role at a media / entertainment giant (think Disney, Time Warner, Sony).
I'm leaning towards either i) or iii), but is either looked upon more favorably for a top MBA admission? Just wanted to get some thoughts around what would be the best path if my ultimate goal was to get into top MBA.
Thank you in advance for your advice!
would you live overseas in the international startup? if so, that's the clearest best choice, especially if you have to learn a new language and culture
It's actually going to be a U.S. based role - also, I share the same cultural background as the origin of the startup, if that makes it any different.
Disney is probably the most prestigious. Feeds well into H/S.
any insights on startup vs corporate strategy? (also, how do these routes after banking fare vs. traditional PE route)?
