Turns out, being 23 with an MBA isn't as good as I thought.
Now what's probably harder is that you're probably over qualified for the lower level jobs. Try switch it up maybe, and don't mention your MBA, see how it goes, gain some experience then start dropping that degree.
Although if you went to a good business school, the alumni network and classmates of yours should be able to hook you up...
Oh I know. I was originally in a JD/MBA joint degree program and finished the MBA after withdrawing from law school. If I had realized I truly had no interest in the law and was just there for the potential paycheck (even though I was near the top of my class and on a full ride scholarship), then I would've waited to go back and get my MBA.
If I don't find something soon though, this does give me the opportunity to pursue PhD programs. I've been weighing that option for a couple months.
