I need some of that good old Mayberry advice. I just moved back to Los Angeles to start an MBA program at a Cal State ( I know, I know), but since Ive only been in town for a week, I need a damn job! I was lucky to work for a start up venture through college, so upon graduating I have 5+ yrs experience in consumer goods sales, managing a staff, running a marketing division, etc. The experience is what let me get into the MBA program at 26 when everyone else in there is 30+. But Im having a bitch of a time finding something solid. Im not 'green' for entry level or internships, so Ive been told. But Im also kinda young for middle management. With the job market as it is, Im thinking of hitting Home Depot so I can work with some Olympic gold medalists!

A) Anyone here have an MBA, how did you support yourself while finishing it?
B) Any ideas on some industries that might compliment my MBA?

Oh yeah, my undergrad is in Bus Admin

Thanks for the advice.

Hilarious, I was just about to edit my post to give credit to your thread for prompting it.

I dont have that specific a path. I was curious, in a general sense, if people worked salary jobs, part times, whatever, while they did it.
