What is the best, fun, decent paying work experience to do before MBA? I want to get into a top MBA, and don't want to do analyst stint at IB, consultancy, or auditing. I'm thinking Big4 TS or FAS would be a good lifestyle, or corporate finance at a F500 or something, but what's a fun decent paying job that would allow you to live in NYC area after you graduate?
I intend to enter IB Corp. Fin after MBA, but want to enjoy myself a bit beforehand.
