Where should I move after getting my MBA?
What's up brahs. I live in California right now. **** is getting pretty ****ty here. I'm also currently working on my MBA. Once graduate i'm hoping to get out of California. Somewhere where the economy is good and cost of living is not horrible. The only other musts I have is that the Summer cannot be too long (my gf cannot stand the heat) and my the winters cant be too brutal (i hate the cold).

I don't know but the best move would be to go wherever you get the best job offer. I'm pretty sure companies like to hire candidates directly out of MBA programs. Have you done any internships or had the opportunity to network with and get to know people at any companies you want to work at? I think hustling and using the MBA program as leverage to find a job will be better than moving somewhere and then trying to establish yourself. Something to think about...

I was already 35 with 2 kids and a wife in residency when I went back to school for my MBA. So I didn't move when I finished. Most of my classmates did what LordBroly said. They went where the opportunity was best.
You'll have to see what fields of business interest you, and maybe where your GF is willing to go?
Remember, your first job is unlikely to be your last, so maybe have fun. Look for work in Europe or China or Japan or ... .
Covid makes it tricky, but I"d say live a little before you settle down and become a married old fart with kids (aka, me).

And don’t worry you misc ****ers..I would never bring California liberal politics where I go. I’ve been a republican longer than most of you have been into politics. So chill.

My sister lives in SLC and i love it there! I'm definitely considering Colorado too.
My university has a pretty big alumni. even in my cohort there are some VPs of banks, so i think i should be able to find some decent opportunities after i graduate. at a bare minimum, an entry level analyst until i can work my way up into a more prominent management position.

To me, the West has always been really intriguing. I think it's the mix of the slower pace of life, outdoor attractions (something I haven't fully gotten to explore yet), and the climate/landscape. Something about all that is just very appealing to me. I used to live on the east coast but I live in South Africa now.

What are you trying to do post MBA? Part of the problem is that most MBA recruiting is regional to your school, so it may be harder to get jobs in different states with no network there. The good news is you have time to expand your network to those potential states/cities. The two biggest besides NY and CA is Texas and Florida. I think Dallas is probably the best bet even if it is warm during the summer. Texas has been crushing it and will most likely dominate the next decade as you have great jobs there, great purchasing power there, and decent weather relative to the rest of the US. I've heard good things about Miami and Tampa but the issue with them is jobs. Yes your first job may be decent there but are there enough good jobs in the region to move to a good company outside of your first job. The other area I've heard decent things about is Raleigh and Charlotte, both growing quickly, good jobs, and moderate weather.
However, if you can get a great paying job in California why not just stay.

I want to move on to greener pastures but find a place close enough to a city where i can still enjoy the occasional concert/rave/festival and play adult recreational spots (besides all the other outdoor recreational activities).Nice, man.

If I moved for a new job opportunity, it would be a little less job security but potentially a lower cost of living coupled with a higher salary would set me up pretty nicely. Unfortunately i think Texas is out of the question because it's too hot for my GF to handle. I will definitely look into raleigh and Charlotte though. Thanks for the tips broski.
