Connecting and networking with others is the foundation to gaining a deeper understanding of the types of roles and industries of interest to MBAs.

As you have career conversations with alumni, peers, and others you will gain insight into what is important to you in a role, a company, and a mission/cause and how that aligns with your vision of meaningful and rewarding work.

Getting Started

Identifying your Network

Connecting with current students and alumni is one of the best ways to gather information during your search. We recommend tapping into your Haas network early and often by connecting with current and former students in all programs.
