Congratulations on the interview! I have mine coming up and do have a major change since I submitted my application - I changed companies. I've been trying to think through whether to bring this up with them or not. I fully intend on joining MIT if I were to get admitted, but I worry that by telling them I joined a new company they'll start to doubt my seriousness on pursuing an MBA? Do you think this would be more of a hindrance on my overall application than just not mentioning it? (I only started 2 weeks ago)
