Wall Street still a draw for MBAs

“MBA’s are looking for and being sought after by the larger Wall Street firms, despite the negative press and the pervasive idea that these firms aren’t hiring,” said Scott Rostan, founder of Training the Street, in prepared remarks. “If anything, these firms are hiring aggressively.” 

Rostan’s firm is a corporate training provider for Wall Street firms and conducted the survey that drew from students a part of the nation’s top 25 MBA programs.

Nearly 60 percent of respondents expect their starting salaries to be between $100,000 and $125,000.
