MBA - Business Management,  
 you can study about Digital Marketing on your own in whatever depth you want to.

Thanks for the advice. Can you perceive about the Market Demands in regards with MBA-Business Management?? What posts can be achieved with it??

almost anything! but it then depends on the specialisation you choose in your second year of study..for example, Marketing , Finance etc.

Please do speak about longer terms of interest scales and rising demands. Trends can fluctuate, based on them, please do provide a good average of which course can be sufficient, exciting and growi...

Welcome to Business Roles's Private Community

I have completed my bachelor’s in B.com I’m interested in digital marketing so selecting major decisions science and minor marketing can it be a good  option ?

Can anyone please let me know about MBA specialisation

Overview: 
Everyone around me, be it old school friends to the people in the bangalore startup ecosystem are planning to or already in the process of doing an MBA. 

What is happening:
Most of the people I know, either are going for a tier 1 MBA in India or colleges like “Carnegie Mellon”/ “INSEAD”/ “NUS” these are really good places. 

Why am I concerned:
I dont have great acade, GEM candidate so I have decided to not pursue CAT at all, and MBA outside India is too expensive. 

I feel like my job and career are going fine with 4 years of professional experience I am making 25LPA in marketing. I am not keen on doing an MBA but I dont want to regret later.

I consider myself to be fairly smart but what happens when I am competing with people who have great brand names on their resume and are actually smart. 

People on GV with more experience, have you gone through this struggle? 


Sidenote: I also have friends who have cleared IIM ABC, ISB and not gone, because they just wanted the admit letter. Which is brave lol!

Does mba helps in long term? I know in short term it doesn't pay as much as sdes. But in long term sdes have salaries capped after certain stage. So if one decides to go into executive position, does not having mba hinders the process. Has anyone experienced this non - sense. I know this doesn't happen in usa, there people from philosophy background can go into higher position on the basis of merit or politics:). But here in India how's the scenario. Please put your thoughts.

Should I do an MBA

Software Developer

Welcome to Indian Startups's Private Community

How important is it to get an MBA for an overall network and growth perspective?
I have an experience of 3 years at a series A startup, I now feel my growth flatlining.
Would it be better if I go for an MBA or if I go to a different startup?

My profile is not the best in terms of grades (not bad either but 90% in 10th and 12th and 7 CGPA in college- BA Hons)  
Will ISB admit be possible given I crack a great GMAT score? I’m unsure if the Acads will hamper it.

Please upvote so that it reaches relevant folks for help. Thanks!

MBA for growth?

I currently work at a real estate marketplace startup and look after content, SEO, and executing facebook abd google ads. I don’t have any marketing degree yet. Whatever I’ve learnt, it’s on the job. 
I’m thinking of pursuing distance MBA, since I don’t want to leave my job. Another thought is to take up online courses by ed-tech institutions. 

Can someone guide me please?

How should I advance my career in marketing to land high paying jobs?

Welcome to Data Scientists's Private Community

Hi all,

This question is for people who have been in this field (any form of analytics) for a few years.

My background (You can skip to the next section and jump back for reference here):
Role: Data Scientist/Analyst
Tech stack: Python (ML), SQL, Tableau
YOE: 2 years
Work: Started here as a fresher. Being in a service based company, we offer analytics solutions. I have worked to create a clients data pipeline(No code tool), to maintaining it, creating dashboards (Primary task) and ML models (Based on any major change in metrics).
Salary: On the lower spectrum (Definitely!)

Reason for this post:
I would call myself good with tools but lacks industry knowledge and the maturity to actually be in analytics. I do decent, but I have to depend on my manager sometimes to understand the business and provide correct solutions. But I guess that is how it is in case of any fresher starting out?

Question:
Is pursuing a 2 year MBA (Targetting only Tier 1 colleges) a good idea for someone who is already working in analytics for 3 years (by the time I join an MBA program)?
Please share your thoughts.

Context to the question:
I've discussed with someone who did their MBA and works in analytics for a bank now. And according to them, the best way to progress in analytics is to choose a domain and stick to it. And to reset my career, I should do an MBA. This will help me get an understanding of all the domains, improve my soft skills (and time management, etc.) and also give me a good place to start fresh. And they say it will help me in the future as well, as it gives me a very good alumni network.

I'm considering this because of my ability to network has not been that great and also to get the domain knowledge they said I'll be getting. But is it really worth it considering I lose 2 years salary, and salary growth and also have to spend a big amount. 

Thanks in advance to anyone who replies!

A question regarding the need of an MBA in analytics

Data scientist

I have 6 years exp in fintech (analytics/ ops). What are some good places to consider for exec mba(preferably 1 year). Not so great score in my bachelor's >50% will that be a factor?

MBA suggestions

I have been in a job for 7-8 years in Corporate taxation in Big 4 and see no growth and passion. Now I want to transit to a new career line, my best step seems to be to do an MBA. What should be the best approach? Which kind of MBA? Is it realistic to do an MBA in India or can we dream abroad as well.

Alternatively I can start with CFA?

MBA or CFA - Which type?

Senior Consultant

I need some advice. 

1. I am a fresher and am considering giving the CAT exam this year. 
2. Currently working as a data science intern and frankly, not enjoying it a bit. I dread debugging. I also feel everyday that AI can easily do 75% of my work. 
3. I want some business side roles, thinking I won't have to stare at a screen all day, fixing bugs. 

What roles can I expect after doing a MBA, is it worth the extra 2 years and the money, and if you are someone who can relate to my situation, what are some of the things you enjoy about your work and some things which you absolutely hate. 

I might have completely wrong expectations, so please feel free to correct me.

Life after MBA

IIT BTech - avg GPA

Preference:

Is an MBA worth it? (only outside India). Context in description.

Founder’s office

B.Tech + MBA is a deadly combination in India. Sometimes I see people doing MBA just after graduating from college. Why do they do this? Is it because you want to earn more money and realised business is what matters at the end of the day? Or found business more interesting? Or something else.? Please share some reasons.

People who switched from technical to business side by doing MBA or otherwise why did you do it?

Hi folks, I’m a Sr. PM at a good startup currently getting 40 LPA. My total experience is 6 years (2 years PM). One of the CXOs suggested to me (over a casual conversation) to consider doing an MBA from ISB or Ivy League colleges if I can afford a career break. 

I know that post-MBA might not see a huge jump in CTC but from a long-term perspective do you think it would be worth it? Will it open more avenues for growth?

Should I go for an MBA?

Product Manager

Welcome to Moving Abroad's Private Community

I completed my Masters in English from Amity University in 2021. After that I did online and offline teaching for some time but that did not really suit me. On a counsellor's advice for better career options, i was suggested that i do a course in Human resource management from abroad but my visa for canada was rejected. I also got acceptance from Royal Holloway University in London for the same course but for some reasons my seat 23' intake too was cancelled. The whole ielts exam and the procedure of moving abroad have consumed almost 1 1/2 years but I am still in India. I was told that there might be an intake for the same college and course in london in january but now the college has removed that course for the january intake. My counsellor has suggested that i go in january only but has given dIfferent course options that i should now go for according to her-

Msc Digital marketing

Msc international business management

Msc international business management (stratergy and leadership )

Msc international business management (marketing )

These are the courses that the college is offering me. I am not sure if these courses are worth it/ have scope of growth in India as well if i come back after my studies/ are well paying etc.

A lot of my time is already wasted. I am also in double mind that since my 3-4 chances of moving abroad have somehow been cancelled, should i leave the idea altogether and focus on making my career here in India in writing content, articles, newspapers and other thing. Does the writing field have good scope, well paying options available?

What to do ?
