MBA Resume

You MBA resume is your first impression to a prospective employer. Your resume highlights your skills, competencies and experiences. MBA resumes are different from normal resumes. The target audience and what they are looking for are different than those of a standard resume. Most recruiters know that an MBA is a significant achievement but are not aware of all the details behind it.

The Basics of an MBA resume

• The business school where you studied
• Specialisation (finance, eCommerce)
• MBA courses specifically relevant to your targeted job. If you are applying for an Business Development position, mention specific units in the course which are relevant.
  

If you come from a technical background, or are applying for a technical MBA position, it is important not to be too technical in your resume. Identify skills in your past job that are transferable to your new role. Do not stuff your resume with jargon - your resume has to be understood by the layman as well as by the professional.

If on top of your resume you have several years of business experience consider writing an executive resume.

Your personal objective has to be business oriented rather than technical.
