Financial, Consulting, and Tech: Top 10 Industry Preferences for the MBA Class of 2012

Second-year MBA student registration is closed for most of our partner programs, and today, more than 10,000 graduating MBA students from 60+ of the world's top-ranked graduate business schools have uploaded their resumes and created career profiles with MBA Focus.

They will be CEOs, CFOs, executive managers, directors, and VPs of huge Fortune 500 companies as well as start-up entrepreneurial businesses. But what types of industries are they interested in?
