Given the market conditions and forecasts for the next year.....I think it is good that you get in to MS....but the final call is yours.....If you want to work and do MBA from top institutes get in to the job....if you want to be in technical side and research then you have to go ahead with MS

chill dude...
I have been here on PG for quite some time now. And I dont think anyone here differentiates between this university and that university or look down upon non iitians or somethinkg ...
PPl who usually answer must be busy..
If it very very urgent try sending them private messages...
I am Final yr B.com Hons student. I appeared in ICFAI n scored 67.31%tile. I also appeared in MAT n scored 70.5%tile. I have got call frm ICFAI. Shud i go n attend the GD PI at Hyderabad or appear in MAT feb??? Do i stand ne chance of getting in to good institute in ICFAI with such low scores???????????????
well i have asked raven about this a long time back...i need some help....
I have been working for a major software firm...i was pretty frustrated with job and have resigned few days bak...today is my last day at office....my problems are-
a) I have call from IIFT and can expect a call from one iit out of top 3(based on predictions)..no chances of any calls based on cat....i'm in a unique quest to prepare for interviews, prepare for xams left and search for new job.....i would be pretty happy to join IIFT or top3 iit's this year....
so now my problem is regarding what to say about job in interviews...12 month work-ex in s/w firm....next what? last yr my iift interview was on 28th jan...this year i can expect the same....
my options are-
i) i have got a job as business analyst in a startup of 3 ppl(total strength is =10 ppl) who hv passed out IIM-B some 20 yrs back and were holding posts like MD in reputed companies...its a good venture...but they were not ready to take me as i would leave in 4 months(if selected)..there to have atleast one job in hand i had to lie that i won't be joining b-school this yr....now i have this job in hand...joining would be in jan 1st week....but if i get into any b-school...they would create trouble giving me work-ex and that's not what i would like to have...but if i don't convert any call this is the best place to be in..i really like the job
ii)become a faculty in time/cl/ims...this job i don't have in hand...but if i try i can easily get it...the prob is what will i say in interviews as it will give a -ve impression...
also joining of i) is really late for iift...as it wud give me just 20 days in new job and won't be able to learn much....
do i have any option?
am searching for more options...but things are not that easy...
Well man I think yours is a tricky situation. First thing first give your best shot to the interviews. Regarding not getting a work-ex certificate, well me in industry since 2 years, I think as long as you're able to prove what you worked upon and what u learned it wont actually matter providing a proof, but yes for the b-schools its submission might be mandatory. But less than 6 months anyways u dont get any points.
In the interviews simply tell them you're working in so and so firm and tell them wat ur job involves.
20 days is enuf to get a know how of the general business enviro around ya. And right now in such a global crisis finding literature to read isn't a daunting task.
and for those who're thinking of leaving their IT jobs, i wud suggest dnt shift domains unless u really like the other one... and practically in current market scenario do not even think of leaving a job until and unless u hv confirmation frm some other place.
I can tell u a funny story frm CRISIL where i work, 3 people left to join Lehman Bro, on their joining date, the Monday it went bankrupt.

Is there anything else that is an option for you? in case there is something better that you have on your plate, then contemplating joining this company is a right thing to do. in case this is your only offer, then im afraid there isnt any choice. more so during a time like this when having a job is a good position to be in.
having said that, the 2 year bond is something that you have to think about. the current market trend wont be for long, and in some time the scene will improve, but if you take a wrong decision now, you will be stuck for 2 years.
im sorry i cldnt help you much in terms of job profile/future career path. but the points i have presented is also something that you need to consider before coming to a decision.

The IT industry is going to be quite uncertain throughout 2009....many comapnies are freezing recruitments....Better to get in to the job irrespective of pay,bond etc....the coming year is going to be difficult for freshers..
Hi guys,
Although I can gauge what the response to my query would be from the post above,I would still request you guys to have a read.I have done my B.Tech in Instrn&Contr; 2008,and I was placed in Keane India in the third year itself.Now as keane was one of the first co.s to come to our campus,I wasn't able to take exams for co.s such as perot systems,cogni,accenture etc.Now the thing is that I didn't try for any other co. after completing my graduation partly because I was thinking of giving CAT seriously and mostly because I was hoping that keane would give our DOJ soon,since it's office is nearby,no bond etc.I messed up my CAT exam and I'm not expecting calls from the colleges that I had applied for.However I managed to have an okay XAT and with a score of 29-30 I am expecting a call from GIM and reaaa...........lly optimistically XIMB.
Now comes my question,I went for an interview in Honeywell's BPO arm yesterday ,and I was selected for the securities division(apparently they only hire techies for this div).They are telling me it's a technical process,it's b2b,and that I would handling calls from sales manager and such and not from the end customers.Now I know zilch bout BPO industry,is it really as technical as claimed,and will I be able to explain myself during the PI (if I make it).And can someone please give some experiences/knowledge about Honeywell.I know that the parent company is famous,probably every instrumentaion guy does,but what about the BPO arm.Please reply soon as their HR would be calling soon to negotiate the salary and tell me about shifts.Thanks
P.S I don't care about the salary,well it's not my top priority anyway,it's the profile and the brand name that matters.

The thread I was searching for all the time.
Its a long story
In cat 07 I did ok. 95%ile. Converted welingkar, AND cdnt join due to a recurring health problem.
Was outta action for 3 months(kinda kinda) and took cat again getting 128 (approx). Also cleared IIFT.
Now the bad part. I failed in my sem exams in may due to the same problem and in general have a bad acad record(55 %, mumbai, BE). Health playing no minor part here.
Now I have applied to B Schools but now have a query,
1) will anybody take me in considering my resume,
2)Plan 2 if i dont get into any value for money B School,
the only options are getting a job in some BPO or some data entry types.
3)I get into an oki oki B school do I join that? Or doin 1 of the above jobs and giving cat again is better?
I had posted earlier and now would like to add things. i have managed to score 98.28 OA in cat 08. Now I know I wont make it to IMT n MDI but do ya guys think I have a decnt shot at odr colls like NIRMA, TAPMI. If i come across as an intelligent n dedicated candidate who has faltered, will they take me. Is it really about the GD PI performance and not about your past record?
Now Im not exactly financially well off so I cant go in for courses where I have to invest 8 lacs and not get a job in the end.
If I dont get through to a half decent college, I plan to taake up a simple job(faculty or data entry/bpo types).
Will that add to my resume or damage it when I go in for CAT 09?
Or do I just take any college and work hard there to get placed, taking a financial risk in the process?
Hello Puys,
I am back again with yet another series of queries.Actually I am quite confused which way i should head for:confused:.I am a BTech(Computer Science) 2008 passout.
1.)I was having placement offers from 2 software firms.But due to slow down one of them hasnt responded and the other one has postponed its joining(no news of new joining date for the past few months).Not been able to find a suitable job in Delhi/NCR till now,so completely free.
2.)Although an Mba aspirant,i am quite new to mba preparation,dint even appear for them in my final yr,n this time too started prep as late as november and also missed out on filling forms for entrances including CAT.Wanto prepare well and give my best shot in 2009,since I have so much time with me.
3.)I am also elligible to join a course in CDAC.I have heard that CDAC courses are good ,but i dont know if its fine for me to join it in a situation like mine.
4.)Thinking of enrolling for regular coaching course too...
Which are the best coaching centres in Noida and Delhi that i can go for.
From jan 09 to nov 09 is a long time and I am wondering hw to utilise it.
What should i do meanwhile
Keep job hunting,patiently wait for a job + coaching
or
Should i join a coaching and go for cdac simultaneously.
If there is another set of options i can go for ....i'll be glad to know about them...Please feel free to reply or even pm me (whatever way you wish to, acc to your convenience).
Thanks a lot in advance,
My best wishes to all the puys helping us here!:clap:...:angel:

I think it will be good to take up the job even though they might call you late.The doj might be late but hang in.
In the mean time (six months) you can try various options...
1.Prepare hard for CAT and other exams.
2.Work in a smaller company of your choice
3.Learn a new foreign Language (French,German,....)
4....
5.....
Joining other b-schools and putting in your money(fees) and time(2 years) and not able to get good returns(placements) will not be a good situation I feel.

Help me out....
have you analysed the pros and cons of it..?
I mean, please take a pen and a paper and put down your answers to the following questions:
1. How am I going to benefit out of this course?
2. What kind of job profile willl I be getting and whether it will suit my needs?
3.Can I afford to wait another year and do a full time MBA ?
4.How is this e-mba course compared to a full time MBA from a residential school? Is it comparable?
5...
If you can answer the above questions, I think you will be able to decide for yourself... we all belong to the same age group, and I cannot possibly suggest something which may/may not turn out to be good for you as everybody thinks differently.. hence please ponder over these points and am sure you will be able to take a decision soon. ATB!
