I recall back in the mid ‘90s (as a young Gen Xer just starting out into the job market, not a fun task back then) reading about how recent MBA graduates were having such a tough time finding employment of any kinds, some universities were working in conjunction with companies to take MBA students on in minimum wage jobs just so they could get some work experience in the business environment.

The way it was supposed to be, is you get a bachelors degree, go out into the world and get some work experience, and THEN see what additional education you will need.

That's exactly how the MBA was supposed to be. Your under grad was a foundation, then work for a few years to get your feet wet and realize what you don't actually know, and go through the MBA to help pull everything together.
