Define decent. 
 Tier 2 gets you placements somewhere between 3 to 10LPA. 
 Honestly not worth the investment (time and money)

Associate Consultant

You can legit get that knowledge from youtube too, but companies won’t consider


P.S. I am from Tier 2 MBA so cant diss me

Opinion: If you are doing MBA from tier 2 or below, you are just paying for the deg certificate

I am an engineering student from tier 1 clg, with very low cgpa. My chances of getting those high paying jobs is very low as I don't code and the only options left for me is analyst and pm. 
Please suggest me how should I prepare for off campus placements/ internship as I have no idea that how are they different from on campus placements

Off campus placements

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

Welcome to Banking & Finance's Private Community

I am currently working as deputy manager grade 2, in the capital accounts department in ICICI Bank. I like the work but I am being paid very less (41k per month to be precise). I am 24 now and I have an experience of 2+ years. 
Kindly recommend a few ways to get a salary of 1L+ 
Is MBA mandatory to get a big salary in corporates ? In most of the role having an MBA Is a pre-requisite.

Don't have an MBA

Corporate Banking

Take this work a pinch of salt, not to be triggered. 

I work in a company with a good number of folks working in product, growth/ strategy. Many of which are from tier 1 Indian business schools or some even from abroad. 

Paid hefty, I just don't see them being that smart. Putting way too much time into presenting something instead of getting work done. Jugaad method of calculating target metrics, ever changing requirements (low on clarity) is just the norm. 

I was someone who looked upto these colleges and wanted to be in one after having a good 5 yoe. Now I'm not sure. Hoping to be proved wrong, so there's no need to fire your guns at me :)

Is it possible to land a job at MAANG (FAANG) via off-campus placement, from a Tier-3 College in Kolkata? If yes, what are the steps?

Job at MAANG from Tier-3 College.

Founder

Should I go for MBA in top 10 b schools india like IIMs, XLRI, SPJAIN, etc

So a little background about myself. 

I graduated in 2023 from a tier college and managed to get an off-campus job in an investment bank as an SDE. 

My current salary is 24LPA.

Would it be beneficial for me to do MBA from the above mentioned colleges

Like would the placements there be better than what I have currently? 

Also if I can save enough money in 2 years would a MBA in US in a top 20 uni be better than MBA in IIM? 

I will be going for further studies sometime in 2025 or 2026.

My main goal is to improve my salary and build a network. 

I have also managed my own dev agency and did freelance projects in the past 4 years. 

If anybody has gone through the same please let me know your experience. 

This also applies to MTech/MS as well

Thank you.

Should I go for an MBA?

Software Engineer

I have done my MBA from a tier 3 institute and find it a little difficult to make into strategic positions in my organisation. 

Has anyone found themselves in a similar situation in the past ? If yes then what was your roadmap to get into strategic positions in your organisation. 

Does the second MBA ( especially an executive one from tier 1 institute) make sense. 

Would love to listen to different perspectives here.

Does a second MBA make sense ?

Why don't other MBA schools pay as good? One of the reason

Hello grapevine folks,

I am a 2024 batch btech Cse , general male candidate from IIIT( 10 year old).

Class 12th - 97% (ISC)
Class 10th - 96.4% (ICSE)
Btech Cgpa - 9.415 (till 6th sem)

I am thinking of giving CAT next year but in dilemma that should I go for work experience or not . As iims do prefer people having work experience. 

And what percentile should I aim for getting admission in old IIMs.

Thanks in advance.

1. They are the most overpaid people in India.
2. They have no work life balance and they don't even know what it means.
3. They think they are the best at everything, but they can't do anything right.
4. They are always complaining about their job and how much they hate it.
5. They are never satisfied with their salary or benefits package.
6. They are always looking for new jobs because they think they deserve better than what they currently have.

Would you like to add anything else here?

Product Manager

Hi everyone, I am currently working as an IB analyst (front end) in a boutique shop. Our core focus is equity and debt funding in the startup space (seed to series b usually). 

Its been an year since I have joined and I am looking to switch. Joining a mid market or a bigger boutique shop makes more sense by the book and I have some connections for the same but I have been really interested in management consultancy and want to give it a shot before MBA. 

The thing is, I graduated from a tier 2 private college and most of the consultancy firms I know of give a huge importance to pedigree and prefer hiring from tier-1 institutes. Does it make sense for me to try getting in through referrals or is it smarter to aim for this post MBA. And to begin with, do I even stand a chance to get into some good consultancy firm?

Switching from Investment Banking to Consulting

Most of the queries asked here should be sorted easily if an HR can respond with their insights, but i rarely see any HR participating in discussions, maybe we don't have that many HR's here ?

Or 

maybe you folks want to stay the same as you are on the job, totally useless.

Aren't there enough HR's users on grapevine? I hardly see you folks responding to queries?

Account Executive

As someone from a tier-3 college, is it possible for me to bag a good job and slowly climb the ladder and make 30L, 40L like some of you do?

Is this IIT branding so needed even today to get a job at top companies? 

I have huge regrets for fucking up JEE mains now.
