Should I do an MBA?
It's slightly long - It would be great if you could guide me!
Total Experience: 7 years Domain: Sales Education: Tier 2 Engineering College Current TC: Rs. 60L + ESOPs (mentioning the compensation as it's relevant)
Throughout my life, I have been discriminated against due to not having a pedigree. I have had to work my ass off to reach where I am today.
Currently I'm at a senior position in a startup incubated by an MNC. I still face the following concerns:
-
Extreme difficulty while applying for jobs; Example: my exceptional performance in my previous organisation was not known outside and since I didn't have any "pedigree", I was considered overpaid in the job market.
-
I did join at a decent hike after an year of search and even in the new company, I don't command a lot of respect due to the lack of fancy tags like IIT/IIM/ISB/Booth/LSB/Insead,etc.
What should I do? Does an MBA make any financial sense to me at this Experience and Compensation? If yes, where should I try for an MBA?
