What are some post-MBA Careers with 0% traveling? (For someone who absolutely hates it!)

I can think of Trading, but that's it.

aside from consulting, what other post-mba positions do require a heavy amount of travel? i don't think many do. working in industry will usually allow you to reap a more stable lifestyle with somewhat lower pay than consulting or banking.

But I mean 0%...in Banking you have to travel for roadshows. Sales you have to travel for client visits. Research you have to travel to visit the companies you cover. PE you have to travel to visit potential acquisitions...etc.

well aside from entry level positions, i don't know that too many positions like this exist. even in my pre-mba industry (manufacturing) where i worked in engineering, i still had to travel at least once a month, if not more. conferences, clients, even training will require some amount of travel at some point.

Corporate Finance and Marketing may require limited travel. It would really depend on the company though.

Once you get up to the managing director level in investment banking you're pretty much on the road all the time, just like a management consultant.
