SCHOOL COMMENTS
School Comments:
N/A作者: s 时间: 2010-7-19 15:08
Unless you want to stay in the L.A. area and do marketing or entertainment, Marshall does not provide much support in terms of career services or coursework. -- Venture Capital/Private Equity
Not only did the academic faculty provide an outstanding business education, the program office provide a seamless operation, and the career resource center provide 100% dedication, but the students of Marshall provided invaluable insight as to what type of character, mentality, and passion it will take to succeed in both the current and future global economy. -- Consulting
Most of the recruiters that come to USC are based in southern California. I would only recommend someone enroll in USC if he or she wants to stay in that area; it's very difficult to have contact with companies based elsewhere. -- Venture Capital/Private Equity
Marshall seems adept at accepting candidates that, for the most part, fit neatly within the USC persona and are easy for both alumnae and current students to get along with. -- Marketing作者: s 时间: 2010-7-19 15:08
I went to West Point for my undergraduate and served six years in the Army. With zero prior business experience, I was able to secure multiple job offers in consulting, finance, and operations. A large part of my success was because of Marshall. -- Consulting
I think the real value of the Marshall MBA program lies in the so-called "Trojan network," and for anyone who wants to remain in the Southern California area, Marshall would be a good choice. But there are specific job functions, particularly investment banking, where I would be more hesitant to recommend Marshall, as all the large banks are concentrated in New York. -- Finance
Marshall is great for marketing and entrepreneurship, but it�s inferior to other schools in finance and consulting. -- Marketing
Marshall gave me, above all else, a fantastic network and the skills to leverage it. I met a lot of smart, friendly people during the program and got access to one of the strongest alumni networks on the planet. -- Entrepreneurship
I thought business school was about developing the next generation's entrepreneurs and business innovators, but Marshall seemed more focused on creating mindless middle managers. And the tests are not blind-graded, so whether or not the professor likes you is extremely important. -- Finance作者: s 时间: 2010-7-19 15:12
My technical skills improved, my network base improved (drastically) and I interacted and debated with intelligent students and professors continuously. -- Nonprofit
Marshall�s support for job-searching international students was very poor. There was a dedicated person who dealt with international students, but she left a few months after I started and wasn�t replaced until much later. -- Finance
From the instant that I decided to join the Trojan family, I was pleasantly surprised by how enthusiastic everyone was. Fellow Trojans (current and past) reached out to me in the beginning, offering me help and assistance, even when I didn't specifically ask for it. -- Marketing
Overall, I enjoyed our community spirit and team-based curriculum, and I always brag that we are the ONLY b-school that requires all full-timers to go on an international business trip (PRIME). -- Marketing
Marshall was not the typical hyper-competitive, cutthroat MBA program. It also doesn't have an overtly strong �brand� so you can make your experience into what you like. -- Venture Capital/Private Equity
As a student, you have to be very nice to the Career Resource Center staff and beg them for a job. And then, maybe, they will put a good word for you, but that�s not certain. Also, most job postings were �U.S. citizens only.� -- Consulting
Private universities like USC are expensive, but they offer more scholarships than state schools. Many of my classmates, including myself, received full or partial tuition scholarships, which is extremely beneficial for a young person starting a new career. -- Marketing作者: stream 时间: 2010-7-19 17:33
