According to the MBA Career Services Council, the job market is improving for MBA students. A recent survey of 57 business schools found a clear trend in the recruiting practices of financial and consulting companies.
This is obviously good news for students looking forward to a MBA career. For the first time since 2001, many MBA programs are seeing an increase in recruiting.
Some additional findings of the new survey:
Most of the schools surveyed reported that a high percentage their 2004 graduates had at least one job offer within three months of graduating.
The 2004-2005 job market would be even better than the previous academic year according to 91% of the schools surveyed.
2004 graduates received an average base salary of $71,096 and the percentage of students receiving a signing bonus increased in 2004 over 2003.
