In today's video, we have students, Ayan Sengupta, Bidisha Banerjee and Vaishnavi Durgakar from Great Lakes Chennai's 1-year MBA program.

They talk about how having certain years of work experience helped them better understand in what direction they want their career to go and decided to join a 1-year PGPM program at Great Lakes that helped them to cover the knowledge and skills gap with GL's data-driven and hands-on learning approach and got them ready for the job market in a span of 1 year. Further, they discuss how it is absolutely possible to switch to consulting even after having worked in different fields before and talk about how pursuing the PGPM has pushed them to their maximum potential and gotten the best out of them. They also spoke about their expectations from a consulting job, the perks of being in this industry, their ambitions, and much more.
  This video is going to be helpful for people who have certain years of work experience and planning to switch jobs in another industry to pursue an MBA. With more than 3 years of work, it might be confusing to pursue a 2-year MBA because of the opportunity cost and other factors. This video will give you a perspective as to why you should consider a 1-year MBA. So, watch the video and let us know your queries and thoughts.
