1. I am currently working for a leading IT firm from India and I am in client location in US. I have a total work experience of 5 years. My first question: i want to switch my career stream from IT to Marketing. I am passionate about advertising. When i went thru the streams and curriculum for marketing; I couldn't make out much as almost all the three super specializations had the same curriculum or rather common names relevant to that stream. Which super specialization (SM &M or PM &M) will give me more exposure towards advertising? Can i have a one on one contact with any existing student of the respective stream i am looking at?
2. What is the career prospects (placements) for those switching career streams? Kindly provide quantitative figure if you have any.
3. Based on the past track record, are students getting placed in middle-level management profiles?
Thanks a lot and i appreciate your time in clarifying my questions. |
