Now that you have considered a number of alternatives after graduation for several months, you must have finally landed on your decision that what do you want to study further! If you have chosen MBA then certainly you would need to find out why you want to take up this stream! Do you want to go for a complete career change, you want to switch your industry, or do you want to break free! Are you sure that MBA can do wonders for your career and ensure better job opportunities, quick promotions and great salaries? Do you have that analytical thinking, executive skills, a global outlook, and are you a strategic planner? If the answers to these questions is yes, then certainly an MBA degree is just for you!
Few of the most commonly considered factors before selecting a B-School are Placements, Peer Learning, Faculty, Infrastructure, Accessibility, Specialties, Gender Ratio, Student Exchange Programme, Flagship Events and Alumni network, not necessarily in that particular order. It is mostly subjective and one needs to get one’s priorities correct before homing into a school.
Beginning last year, most of the banks and institutes began to conduct online bank exams for candidates wanting to acquire jobs in banks and wanting to make a career in the banking industry/sector. With the increasing ratio of the number of applicants per year versus the number of available vacancies per year across India, the test conductors found it to be more feasible to conduct online bank exams for all candidates in hundreds of centers across India, as compared to conducting written exams using the pen-and-paper format. On the up side, online exams are convenient and comfortable for the candidates as well – since it makes it very easy to navigate through questions and handle them more efficiently – with the only exception being those candidates who have zero knowledge about using computers, and those who have never been exposed to the operations and functionality of computers.
In our efforts to help Aspirants this season, we got Professor Munish Thakur, Admissions Chairperson - XLRI on InsideIIM for a LIVE Chat. Here is the transcript of the chat.
