More quality & diverse opportunities for job-seeking MBAs

Job-seeking MBAs at our partner schools can find more than twice as many MBA job postings than candidates at the business schools outside our network; because being part of our school network also means you're part of our MultiPost job distribution network.

MultiPost delivers hundreds of new and diverse MBA-required jobs each month. How? MultiPost receives jobs from multiple sources (including other top schools in our network) and distributes those jobs to our partner school's job boards. Our GTS partner schools receive all the MultiPost jobs as part of their school’s primary job board; but even if you're career service office is not powered by GTS, candidates can access the MBA Focus job board as a secondary resource.

With MultiPost, all jobs are approved before being posted to assure candidates are seeing only the best opportunities. And now, with our revolutionary new JobMatch technology, when candidates register and/or log into the system, candidates will be notified of jobs that match their career profile.

Here's a sample of the MBA-required/preferred jobs that were posted to our exclusive network of top MBA talent last recruiting season via MultiPost:

Accounting - 76
Administration - 59
