I would say the more specific and the more nice you can get, the better.
Finding a broad job is similar to chasing a school of fish vs. if you have a certain goal in mind, it is easy to communicate it, and makes your candidacy stronger.

P.S. People tend to shy away from folks who say "I need any management job - help me!" Consider the other side of it - e.g. "I am looking for a career in men's fashion" or "I would love to help a retail chain to improve sales in existing stores or improve xxx" or "I am interested in Sports Team management, in particular basketball"

I was wondering if anyone on the forum has experience with GM programs in the following industries:

- Oil/Gas (Chevron, Exxon)
- Chemicals (Dow, Dupont, BASF)
- Agribiz (ADM, Cargill)

Read this for Chevron/Exxon; riverripper-s-guide-to-energy-76849.html

I too am interested in Dow/Dupont/BASF. Although I would think that they would have a preference for a chem engineering or related undergrad.
