As an MBA from a long time ago, I think it is important to point out that an MBA has the most impact on your career trajectory within the first five years. In my own cohort, some people leverage their MBA to get on fast tracks, some people chose careers that they did not stick with. If you recently got an MBA a lot of people will hire you for your pedigree and education. If you got an MBA ten years ago, people care about your most recent job experience. Employers will always screen for college graduates, but once you get to a certain point in your career they care less about an MBA and more about experience.
