Even that sounds kind of wishy washy for my tastes, but I may be in the minority here.
Would you suggest mentioning particular companies? Not having the out of being open to other industries?
Oh, maybe i didn't quite understand. If you meant "I want to work in position X at Google, but I'd be open to other types of X positions in similar companies" by all means, go for it. that's not wishy washy. If, on the other hand, you say "I'd like to go into finance but I'd be open to other opportunities," well, I think you're not quite keying in on it enough.
Gotcha. On my previous essays I had put that I'd like to work in business development, but hadn't put the "I'd be open to other opportunities". Going forward, I'll be more specific in regards to particular companies (like Google, since I'd love to work in tech).
Thanks for the feedback! I don't know many MBA's, so this whole process has left me flying somewhat blind in my pursuit. Resources like this forum have been indispensable.
