Look for option 2. take a job, meanwhile prepare for CAT/GMAT. appear for MBA india/abroad after 3 years.

Re: career guidance - 19-10-2006, 10:06 AM

hi all , this is venkatachalam, working in BPO COMPANY. I hve done MBA in S.V.University Finance as specialization. That too i am B,COM Graduate. I got placement through campus interview. Now i am feeling bore in the job, that too i feel there is no growth in the present company . It is like BPO. I am not using my subject knowledge, i am feeling that i may forget every thing if i continue in this job. since i am a B,COM graduate , i am good at Financial Management, accountancy, and other subjects.


Can any suggest me whether to continue in the the present job or try for some other jobs.
I have 6 months experience, will this experience fetch me anything?. is it feasible for me to try for some other jobs ? how is opportunity for MBA (FINANCE) guys
i hope someone will help me in ths regard.








DARE TO DREAM AND STRIVE TO ACHIEVE.

give more details abt type of job you are in. most b-school passout from t-3/4 schools dont get jobs of their expectations. persevere for a year before you change. 6m is too less.
your feeling that you know FM and accounts is not equal to market expectations. you will get in to entry level jobs available for BComs only, your SV univ MBA degree wont get much value.

You might think of joining some Company for an year, which would also add some value when you take on B school PIs. you still have 3 months with you to search a job for yourself.


History shall be kind to me, because I intend to "write" it down..

Hi,

If you get into some good B-School then the gap wont count much. But to be on safer side join some firm where u may gain experience; it will help in case u dont get a good college after CAT'08, whether u join it or stay in job!!
