For those of you curious where I have ended up after the Ivey MBA (and not wanting to wait till my next blog post) here's is a brief excerpt from an Ottawa Life Magazine article that was written with the input from yours truly:

"During his studies, George Kesselman, a recent Ivey graduate, took part in a China Study Program. After graduation in May, the 26-year-old landed a job with an internationally renowned financial services company, Prudential UK, and will spend his first year of employment in Hong Kong. While Kesselman liked Ivey’s strong international focus, it’s not the only factor students need to consider when choosing a business school, he says. They also need to research the quality of the faculty and the success of the school’s graduates, to name a few. A year and a half ago, while Kesselman looked for the right MBA program, he noticed a lack of information beyond any schools’ glossy brochures. He soon launched a blog to help other students wade through the complex process. "You’re investing such a big amount of money, there is no such thing as too much information.” The blog, which transformed into a more Ivey-specific forum, details what students should expect of the fast-paced 12-month program and garners about 4,000 hits a month, says Kesselman"
