Many MBA applicants see business school as a chance to pivot—to shift industries, roles, or even entire careers. But how realistic is your pivot story, and how can you make it resonate with admissions committees and recruiters? In this episode of Inside the GMAT, GMAC Zach is joined by Pamela Jaffe and Laura Nelson, founders of MBA Pathfinders, who have over 30 years of combined experience guiding applicants through successful career transitions. Together, they break down the realities of the modern job market, why the MBA remains a powerful bridge for change, and how to craft an application that's authentic, credible, and ready for the career you want. If you're planning to use business school as a launchpad for change, this conversation will help you map your bridge from where you are to where you want to be.

Pamela began her MBA consulting career in 2010 as a part-time consultant at mbaMission while concurrently working full-time as an internal strategist for companies including IBM, MetLife, Weight Watchers, Pfizer, and Dow Jones.

Takeaways: Many MBA applicants seek to pivot their careers through business school. The MBA application process is crucial for defining career goals. Common pivots include banking, consulting, tech, and entrepreneurship. Misconceptions exist about the ease of career changes with an MBA. Candidates must demonstrate realistic and evidence-based career goals. Networking and experiential learning are vital for successful pivots. The recruiting cycle is urgent; preparation should start early. Candidates should avoid vague or trendy goals in their applications. Building a compelling narrative is essential for admissions success. Researching and validating career goals can lead to more authentic applications.

In this episode of Wisdom's Table, I dive deep into the often misunderstood world of budgeting, particularly from a Christian perspective. Many people view budgeting solely as a numbers game, but I challenge that notion by emphasizing that it's as much about mindset as it is about math. Throughout the month, we're exploring various aspects of money, and today, I focus on how to master budgeting supernaturally by inviting God into our financial decisions. I begin by discussing the common misconception that budgeting is about restriction. Instead, I propose that a supernatural budget is a tool for revelation and strategy, designed to align our spending, saving, and sowing with God's order rather than our desires or anxieties. I share my personal experiences with clients who struggle with the restrictive feelings associated with budgeting and highlight the importance of understanding the "why" behind our financial goals. Throughout the episode, I encourage listeners to invite God into their budgeting process, asking for wisdom and discernment. I emphasize that budgeting is not just about surviving financially but mastering our resources in a way that honors God and aligns with His plans for our lives.   Let's connect outside the podcast!
