Dear Aspirant, Intellectual Property Rights (IPR) is an excellent career option in the field of law. There is specialisation available in law courses in IPR. IPR is about the copyrights, patents, geographical indications, trademarks, etc. which are the intellectual property of an organisation and organisations are very much keen to protect them through the IPR laws.

Hello Nitin The very first thing that I would like to tell you is don’t try to relate education and financial condition. There are many scholarships, schemes of financial assistance by colleges and education loans offered by banks. In order to  choose a career for yourself, list down your interests, skills and favorite subjects. Also think about and inclination towards various fields. As a result you will get to know whether the field of management is suitable for you. Once you decide the course that you wish to pursue, it will be easier for you to search for scholarships and other

Hello Niketa,  The only straight and simple answer to your question is " JOB". I am of the firm belief that pursuing a course or degree or certificate just for the sake of seeking a higher qualification makes no sense. The content from the course must be put into real life practice. Only then the course adds value to the effort taken. Also, work experience and market demand which one can analyse during work must be the means for selecting a course. When I say experience, I mean a minimum of 5years. At the sametime the job profile must be proper and significant. This helps in making a choi

Hello Khushboo,  Firstly good to know you are a management graduate in finance.  Let me tell you a point here, certificates and courses are just add ons to help you get a name to yourself. Not denying the knowledge. But honestly speaking its the work experience that accounts for all degrees and certificates. Rather than adding a certificate I would stress on the work experience and actual job profile.  Being in a proper job role would then aid you towards the industry demand and the course needed for it. Hope this helps. Wish you good luck...

Well, Group Discussion (GD) is one of the important things required to be aced to enter IIMs. Many other B-Schools also made it compulsory for candidates to face Group Discussion after an Entrance Exam like CAT. Generally, IIMs admissions are done on the basis of candidate’s performance in CAT, Written Ability Test, Group Discussion and Personal Interview.

Dear Aspirant, Now forget what you have done in 12th and graduation. Your Masters degree will matter the most for the future jobs and career. You need to improve a lot in communication and English which is a great negative point for you in terms of job interviews and cracking those and getting selected. Just have great degrees now adays wont give you high salary or job satisfaction. Therefore, if you have done Masters in Finance & Marketing, to begin with you will have to apply for freshers job vacancies. Since your Masters is dual, which means neither finance nor marketing is completely k

Hello Doing an MBA is extremely advantageous for ones personal and professional development and I can assure you that you have taken the very right decision in your career.

Many students dont feel confident about MBA because they are unsure if they are deciding something right for life, afraid of life after MBA, afraid of managing finances to study an MBA, and afraid of getting jobs after an MBA.

Dear Aspirant, How many years of experience have you acquired in the HR domain? If it is more than 4 years, then your finance experience of four years would not be directly relevant now in the new job market in India.  Now whether to choose HR or Finance should be dependent on your liking, quality of experience and your willingness to continue over your career life remaining. I feel that since you have the HR domain experience from Dubai and you have the past experience in Finance and also you are qualified, you can look out for companies who have HR plus Accounts requirement. This is pos

Dear Aspirant, Again you are a case of an engineer shifting to other areas. Hope you understand that your engineering degree, money spent, time spent and years spent will go waste when you decide to go to another sector / domain for career. If you are interested in Investment Banking, Analysis, etc. I would then suggest CFA course from CFA Institute USA. Chartered Financial Analyst is the best qualification to gain jobs in investment banking, broking, mutual funds. banking, finance, etc. MBA from a BSchool wont help you if you are interested in a technical finance domain. You may do MBA execut

Dear Aspirant, Hope you are decided about MBA and you are aware why you need an MBA. Just to tell you that MBA is not required by each and every person for excelling in career.  It appears that you are a graduate from Commerce stream.  Firstly I strongly suggest you to aim for an MBA from the Top 10 BSchools in India or if you are planning for MBA from abroad then from Top 20 BSchools in the world. Doing an MBA just for the degree and paper qualification sake is useless and shall not result in anything productive. For MBA, firstly you need to appear for one or more than one entrance
