I am currently pursuing MMS in finance domain at SIMSREE. At the very start of my career I never thought of doing MBA, I completed my engineering and always picture myself working in technical field. I got placed at Torrent Power Ltd as engineer and while working there I started realising that the job that I was doing was not enough for me. I was not that sure about my future in that technical field anymore and every day I was just completing my job without that excitement which I previously thought would be there. Then I decided to not continue with my current job and pursue MBA because I thought MBA will help me to explore myself and open up various career options for me.
The period when I left my job and was preparing for MBA entrance exams was very difficult. Everybody except my family started questioning me why MBA after engineering and that my decision is wrong, I am wasting my time is what they all said to me. But during this time my family was very supportive. And I was firm with my decision and now I think my decision was right. So I think believing myself was the best decision I took at that time. I decided to take finance is because I think finance is the heart of any business and you get to know the whole business. I was sure that this is going to be very difficult for me because being an engineer I had to start from the very basics of finance. During my first semester I had accounting as a subject and it was very difficult to understand at first and I started panicking a bit because it was a finance subject. But then I took help from my friends with commerce background and started understanding all basic principles of accounting and I started liking that subject. Then in second semester we had financial management subject. But then this time I maintain my patience I tell myself that its ok to not know all the things which we were taught in the class and started studying on my own at home. During my vacations also I did some courses related to finance which helped me to understand the basics. So now I think I am ready for my future journey in this field and learn.
