I do not intend to apply for the Fulbright because that funding comes with too many strings attached.
I was curious about which top 50 universities in the USA are likely to provide funding for MBA students with very high GMAT scores (700+)?
I know that Brigham Young University is one such university. Do you guys know any others?
(Note: Please do not reply to this note asking to be enrolled in a scholarship. I am posting this to gather information myself)

The United States Education Foundation in Pakistan invites applications for the Fulbright Scholar Program. The program seeks to improve mutual understanding between the people of the United States and the people of Pakistan through academic and cultural exchange. This program funds up to 10 months of lectureship, post-doctoral research, or a combination of the two at a U.S. college or university. Persons selected are expected to share information about Pakistani literature and culture with their students, colleagues and community groups in the U.S. On returning to Pakistan, Fulbright scholars are expected to make a significant contribution to Pakistan’s development and to share their U.S. experiences with students, colleagues and community groups in Pakistan.
Deadline: 20 October 2010

The Robotics and Biology Laboratory in the School of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science at Technische Universit?t Berlin has an immediate opening!
About the Research
The Robotics and Biology Laboratory conducts cutting-edge research in the area of autonomous mobile manipulation, including work on manipulation, interactive perception, grasping, computer vision, motion generation, motion planning, and robotic cognition. Our work is motivated by the desire to create robotic systems that perform dexterous manipulation tasks in everyday environments with a level of competency rivaling that of humans. We strive to demonstrate our research on real-world robotic systems. This requires the tight integration of autonomous capabilities in manipulation, perception, planning, control, machine learning, and reasoning. Researchers in our lab work at the intersection of at least two of these areas, creating innovative solutions to research challenges in robotics and artificial intelligence. Research projects will be tailored to the preferences, skills, and experience of the successful applicant.

During the entire job hunting process, the most significant and tricky stage is the interview. Candidates feel anxious and nervous before and during the interview process and cannot rest unless they have heard back from the company. For some this phone call brings a sense of achievement with the news that they have been selected for the job, but many receive no calls at all conveying that they have failed to land the job. There might be many reasons why a candidate fails to get the job, most of which are related to the interview process. Many candidates are under the impression that they did well in the interview and are devastated when they are rejected. The fact is that most of the candidates have no idea that during the interview session they might have committed some grave mistakes, which cost them the job. These mistakes are so common that most of the candidates repeat them over and over again without realizing the damage they are doing to their career. If you think you are one of those candidates, there is no need to panic as we have identified some of the most common mistakes made by candidates during an interview so that you can avoid them in the future.
