Hey everyone,

I am currently in the process of applying to various deferred MBA Programs. In April i will be starting my first job after graduation, but as the deadlines for the schools range from April 2nd to April 26th i am not sure wether to put it on my resume as i wouldnt have had the time to really gain any significant experience by then.

You should include your upcoming job on your resume! Even though you won’t have much experience by the deadlines, listing it shows future employers your career trajectory and commitment. Many deferred MBA applicants are in similar positions. Stay confident—your overall profile matters more than just work experience. Best of luck!

Yes, you should, provided you have a documented offer letter in hand that you have accepted.

Hello MycroftTreet,

You should definitely add the job; you may add whatever you know about your role at the moment.

All the best!
