MBA ’25 | Product manager, capital one

Mendoza’s alumni network was key to my career journey and I found myself consistently impressed by the willingness of alumni to connect, chat, share knowledge, and shed light on a wide range of opportunities and career paths. I would say that getting my Notre Dame MBA was very transformative and positive in my transition from the military to a professional career.

MBA ’25 | Project Manager, Fidelity Investments

The Career Center played a critical role in opening doors and preparing me for success. I came into the MBA program with plans to make a big career pivot, and my career coach helped me navigate the recruiting process strategically. It was through a Mendoza-facilitated information session and coffee chat that led to  my summer internship and full-time role.

Student Perspective: Saad Kamil

MBA ’26 | MBA Associate Consultant, Simon-Kucher

 

I would not have been able to secure an internship and job simultaneously in consulting without the help of the MBA Consulting Club. The second years fostered an engaging community with the first years and together we were able to help each other become more successful in recruiting. The Notre Dame network is real. I am truly happy to be part of this alumni network and in turn, give back to the MBA community.
