On today's Modern MBA podcast, we talk to Leah Petr, an Alliance Manchester MBA graduate who managed to secure her dream job - and sponsorship to live in the UK - at the height of the COVID-19 pandemic. Leah talks about all things fintech, making the switch from her previous career in TV, and how she managed a uniquely challenging job search.

Many students come to an MBA from banking, consulting, or MNC backgrounds, but what about those that don’t? The Modern MBA podcast with Marie Kirwan and Kristen Rossi shares the stories of those transitioning from or using their MBAs in unorthodox MBA sectors including the arts, healthcare, not-for-profit, academia, and more.
