Hi TehJay,
Thanks for posting. To answer your questions:
1) Will schools frown on the fact that I'm applying six months after starting a new job?
No, particularly if you explain your story in your personal essays. As long as your answer why you want to pursue an MBA, why now, and why that particular program, this won't be an issue.
2) Would it be in my benefit to wait another year, get more experience in my role, and try to somehow get some marketing experience as well?
What businesses want, even more than a skill such such as marketing, is experience leading and managing others. If you already feel you have this experience, or don't believe you will gain this within the upcoming year, then I don't believe waiting an extra year will make much of a difference.
3) How should I get that marketing experience? Try to take some classes at a school?
Classes at school, as well as your summer internship, will provide great experience.
I hope this was of help! Please let me know if I can answer anything else.
Cheers,
Conrad and the
