In a competitive job market, it’s easy to feel pressure to move quickly by applying broadly, reacting to job postings, and trying to keep up with peers. But after working with thousands of students through many years and various economic conditions, I’ve found that timing and sequencing matter.

The MQM Class of 2025 faced a more difficult and competitive environment, with employers remaining cautious.

As members of the MQM program, career, and admissions teams, we’re often asked what makes the MQM experience special.

The latest employment report showcases not only gains in salaries and the strength of Fuqua’s alumni network but also the value that employers continue to see in MQM graduates.

I am proud to share how our recent graduates’ resilience paid off in the Class of 2023 MQM Employment Report, plus how alumni are shaping what’s possible for our students.

Aided by a job market favoring job-seekers, 2022 was the best year yet in terms of employment outcomes for MQM students.
