Opinion on MBA?
Opinion on MBA?
Hi there! For some background, I was a tech consultant for about 2.5 years, left for a year to explore other opportunities (marketing and PR, which I learned I didn't like!), and am back at my consultancy during Covid for job security. I want to be more creative and strategic, and would like to find a job in branding or product management, but I'm having a hard time finding entry-level jobs right now.I am considering going to grad school and getting my MBA because of this. I know I would enjoy it - I love learning, I want to spend time diving deeper into what I'm interested in, learn a new way to think, and maybe discover new career paths along the way. I believe I would come out with new confidence, connections, and a clearer career path.IS THIS ENOUGH of a reason to go? Feeling discouraged by current job options, not entirely knowing your direction, throwing a TON of money at something...but to grow, learn, and make connections?
