Career Services
"Career Services is more than resume and interviewing support. I see it as a highly personalized coaching engagement, where each student is a client with unique challenges and goals."
Larry Braman, Director of Career Services
The MSBA program invests in the people and resources necessary to deliver a level of career support that is rare among specialty masters programs. This includes securing the leadership of Director Larry Braman, who brings over ten years of career consulting experience placing technology-focused individuals, and Manager Adrienne Antonio, who brings multi-year experience as both a recruiter and a corporate relations specialist at UCLA Career Services.
The Career Services team works closely with each student to craft and execute a career plan so they can land internships and full-time jobs in their targeted industries. Additionally, we offer numerous career and professional development workshops with an emphasis on building the communication skills essential to confidently “tell the data story” to stakeholders across the business spectrum.
“When I entered UCLA's MSBA program, I had very specific goals for the next phase of my career that I wasn't completely sure how to accomplish. The MSBA career services team couldn't have been more helpful in the year that followed. Between one-on-one advising meetings, personalized job recommendations, and sessions covering topics like presentation skills, interview practice, and networking, I always felt sure I was headed in the right direction. In the end, I accomplished my exact goals, and I couldn't be more thankful”.
