Job offers for MBA grads from top US schools drop sharply in 2024, with Harvard and MIT seeing the biggest decline

Job offers for MBA graduates from top US business schools, including Harvard, MIT, and Stanford, have sharply declined in 2024, according to a Bloomberg report. The percentage of graduates without job offers three months after graduation has increased, with some schools seeing as much as a 15% rise in unemployment. Reduced hiring by industries such as consulting and tech, which traditionally hired many MBA graduates, is contributing to the tough job market.
