@sb29 okkk but i can give cat n prepare for it ... i can leave my job.... will at 3 or 4 yr job experience will b fine????
I will be doing my MBA from IP university. planning from main campus. not planning for cat xat or other high grad exams as I do not have that profile. also I have tried that option.
my query is that kahi aisa na ho ki I do MBA and job prospects bad mein kam ho.
@megharawal Ok, being sure about a decision is very good 😃 Job prospects to aapke MBA score , Specialisation and college par depend karega. An MBA will always add value and a lot depends on how you will market yourself. 😃 Don't worry. 
@anandkroy If within 5 years you can get into M1 grade, then it is pointless. Because MBA grads from top schools join ICICI in M1 grade (if I remember correctly). However, after 2-3 years if you feel you want to change from banking sector, then you can do an MBA.
I have 1.5 years work experience in software quality assurance department in a small company...My questions are-
a)if i want to continue in same department after MBA,is 'systems' the best option for mba specialization..?(does specialization matter?)
b)what is the job profile ladder that i can expect with this specialization in a REPUTED company?
c)I am free for next couple of months before joining an mba b-school,will any certification in this period help me in the future?

Hi,I have 21 months of work experience in CTS as a Programmer. I was bored with coding and management roles attracted me.So,now I have few calls like XLRI-HR,IMI,IMT(waitlisted), TAPMI (converted).......So I would be joining MBA college. But, My dilemma is what specialisation I should choose I like talking with people,solving their problems,planning, organising so HR seems an good option.I also feel I have good marketing ideas and understanding but never used in lifetime. Sometimes,I feel since I have work experience in IT so I should take up MARKETING and SYSTEM as dual specialisation and target IT consulting jobs..How should I explore myself in these two months before I join MBA college??
@rockstar9516 women seem to be better HR professionals than men because 1)Men judge people by their looks but women judge people by their personality.2)Women can judge body language 10 times faster than men.

A very sexist comment indeed. May you get some wisdom soon.

1. Been a people person & helping out shouldn't be a reason to be specializing in HR. This function though does a lot of it, but has a much greater role in a company.
2. Marketing with Systems is a great combo when you are looking at IT consulting. But, invariably you ll be at Pre-sales/delivery end of the chain of most IT companies

MBA can be done in Finance. BFSI companies might recruit then. You dont do MBA in BFSI. 5 yr experience wont be a problem if you work hard and are sincere enough. It will be slightly difficult in summers though. Also if you have IT exp try to differentiate yourself in IT work ex than others. Getting into IIMs depends upon 10/12/Grad marks, your Interview performance and ofcourse good CAT score.
I am currently in engineering final year,but not interested in it. I want to move into finance sector. Any other ways to do so apart from bank Po and mba ?
@abhinav_insane what problems wil i face in summers???? is this 5yr job ex good or bad?? in case of mba in finance???
@anandkroy said:@abhinav_insane what problems wil i face in summers???? is this 5yr job ex good or bad?? in case of mba in finance???
Do u have prior experience in finance? if no, just think why would company take someone with no finance work ex. rather their will be someone with finance work ex who would be selected before you. In this way 5 yr work ex would not be valuable at all.
If Yes, then you can very well make that exp in your own favour to get summers and final placements.
In short, 5 yr work ex if not relevant to your future aspirations can become hindrance.

Also this is the minimum that to be a CA it can take 4 or 5 years to if i dont clear it in my 1st attempt.At present my age is 25, so even age is also not in my side.So kindly help me seniors, people who have gone through this, people who are at similar condition or anyone.Thanks in advance.
kindly reply someone.
hi friends, my profile is: B.E. (EC) with 37 month work-ex and got calls from SJMSOM-IITB, DMS-IITD, new IIMs. I'm interested in joining MBA this yr but have a few doubts:
1. my entire work-ex is as Asstt. Manager in the sales deptt of a telecom PSU. but I don't want to work in sales after MBA. I'm interested in IT/systems specialization. what kind of profiles can I get during placements with Sales work-ex and IT/systems specialization. or is it better to do specialization in Marketing?
2. I'm more interested in a technical than a managerial job. In my company, all roles are technical+managerial in nature but the work conditions are difficult (6-day week and lot of field job under harsh conditions) due to which I want to change job. Is it possible to move to technical domain after MBA (systems)?
3. my current CTC is about 5.7 lpa. In the wake of “iim confessions”, inflated placement figures and considering the current placement scenario, is it better to go for better paying jobs in other PSUs (like BHEL, NTPC, ONGC, IOCL etc.) than leave job, invest 2yrs and huge amt of money for the MBA. can there be significant value addition in terms of job profile and salary through the MBA course?
Pls advise. thanks.

IMO MBA helps in tech--> managerial jobs...n not vice versa
Hi Admin team and Junta,
I need your help in deciding which specialization to go for while doing my 1 year MBA. I have a 3 years of experience in business research and consulting. I am a person who is good with numbers, not very innovative, thinks logically, can mix up with people easily.
I am confused between Finance and Marketing. Please let me know about the things and characteristics one should have to go for these specializations. I have observed that most of the students in top colleges other than IIMs go for marketing, maybe because very less finance specific roles are offered in these colleges.
Eagerly waiting for your insights.
Kind regards,
I have a work ex in teaching for 4 years in private engineering college. If I pursue full time MBA from any local college (B.K. school of management, Gujarat-through CMAT), will my teaching work ex b a deterrent to my career further ?? Will it be a correct decision 2 pursue MBA at dis stage dat too from an average B-school ?? Need help....Kindly advice !!
