Target BSchool for defense companies

Hello all

i aspire for an MBA to transition into consulting but in my region (i live outside the US in a developing country) there are many defense companies active and they reward their business developers and execs handsomly for getting major contracts through

so i would like to come to the us get an MBA work in a defense company as international sales or business developers or marketing exec

what do you recommend?

PS: i'm not a russian troll or a chinese spy, i'm genuine, i really want to try something else in my life, i'm fed up with bs dead end job. 

 

Not completely sure what you’re asking, but for most defense jobs you need to clear an obscene amount of background checks that companies won’t even bother with internationals unless you’re from Canada/UK.

If you’re looking to work within your home country then I think it would be feasible, but then your issue becomes is the MBA worth the money invested.

 

thanks for your quick reply, i do not plan to stay in the US after my MBA, but i can, and i do not have any location requirement, i could stay in the EMEA HQs of the companies i would like to work for. About the education cost, i do not have the money and i do not care, i will take as much debt as i can, if it means some slim chance to turn the table around and change my life, i'm in my early 30's and working 8 years in my environment got me nothing. it's time to change, "whatever it takes" wink mr draghi
