Also the situation right now... according to some statistics US is heading towards recession. Do you think it's wise to do masters there in next few coming years ..say 2024 or 2025?

@MBACrystalBall Жыл бұрын

Since our primary focus is on MBA programs, we haven't written much about MS careers. But as a general rule of thumb, it is riskier to go abroad as an international student with very little experience. It helps to have some pre-MS skills that recruiters will value. Otherwise it can be tough to compete with the locals. Which is one of the reasons MBA students fare better than MS students during job hunting.

Hi, could you suggest weather to appear for GRE or GMAT if I'm not sure which program I wish to get into - MS, Tech MBA, Full time MBA 3-4 years down the line for a career in product management? Also, for FT MBA programs is GMAT preferred by admission teams or GRE is equally acceptable?

@MBACrystalBall Жыл бұрын

For FT MBA, both GRE and GMAT are equally acceptable by the top programs. But if you aren't sure of the degree and the test scores come with an expiry date, it wouldn't be a good idea to jump into test prep. Having said that, an MS degree makes better sense for students with less than 2 years of experience.

But in all of the top 30 bschools employment report, average base salary is more than 90000$. So are they misleading?

@MBACrystalBall Жыл бұрын

B-schools aren't lying on their websites. But the process of averaging salaries itself is fundamentally flawed. It ends up combining very high consulting and I-banking salaries with NGO salaries, given an incorrect picture. A small proportion on students' data ends up skewing the whole class average. Instead of relying on the average for the entire class, it would be better to check what the recruiting company is paying - for the specific role you're targetting and in the industry you want to work in. That's will give you a more reasonable salary estimate. And then check out how many students from your target programs ended up in that industry and company, over the years.

@MBACrystalBall Жыл бұрын

PPP can be helpful or misleading depending on the context. As you see in this case, it has used a factor of 20. But that doesn't mean a US salary will give you 20 times better value in India. A $200K salary in Silicon Valley for instance, is quite average considering the cost of living - primarily housing. Think about where you're going to use the USD amount rather than just doing a theoretical PPP conversion.

Not many would choose to live in NYC due to the absurd living costs. Most would find a more affordable place nearby (e.g NJ) and then take the metro to commute to work. With Silicon Valley, the radius of absurdly priced housing is much bigger. So overall, I'd say Silicon Valley is more expensive overall.

@MBACrystalBall Жыл бұрын

1.Build a list of companies that have been recruiting from your program over the years. 2. Get in touch with alumni there, and find out more about the opportunities that interest you. 3. Ask them to forward your resume to the right person in the team. When you don't have most of what they need in the job description, it means that you may not be a good fit for it. So, don't try to force fit yourself, as that can backfire later, if not immediately. Focus on roles where you can genuinely show an overlap in skills they need.
