Haha I first saw this on my phone and--not realizing that you were also the OP--thought "wow that's really lovely and rude to firstpost under an earnest and well-intentioned OP". I'm glad I waited til I was on my laptop to queue up a sixer. I'm well out of my element when discussing the MBA job market but I wish you the best of luck. Some quick thoughts: -Re: "Was this degree a total mistake?": so what if it was? You can't go back and change it. I know it's tough to stay positive but getting down on yourself about your educational decision is going to lead you away from a problem solving mindset. -You mention several friends making good salaries, albeit with very different qualification and occupational profiles than you. Have you tried leveraging their networks at all? -What does your MBA program have in the way of career services and alumni networking? -I wonder if your cover letters would benefit from trading some breadth for depth. You introduce a bunch of different skills and experiences, but only spend a sentence on each one. It might come across to hiring managers as "here are all the bullet points on my resume, now in exciting new cover letter format!" Maybe try rewriting your cover letter to tell fewer, better stories about experiences you've had and skills you've developed?
