Dear Student,

1. Make a neat biodata show to us. visit all foreign banks approach HRM and if you have completed BBI give the biodata.

2. Go to institute of banking and finance at WTC Arcade, Cuffeparade ask their advice.

3. Read Banking service recruitment board exam book develop answer for all banking terms. Keep looking for new terms in banking and finance, get well versed with them.


Clerical position in nationalised bank against advt, executives post in private bank without advt and foreign bank for sales executives are the areas you can apply

:ballchain::ballchain::help::decision:

Like you some students state they are confused at BBA stage. They should write CAT or CET if they really are sincere to become managers.

Even MA Economics is an excellent degree for joining anywhere-college, RBI, any bank in India or abroad.

Garware Instt- I have my reservations as They are not reputed- let me be frank. Be cautious and find out market report.

Always before taking up a venture study market opinion. You please go through all previous question papers of the Univ and solve them. This is applicable to all of you guys.

I wish to apprise you students of the current trends in the employment market and the expectations and how you should go about it ans suggest ideas.

You can do Masters in Finance as financial sector is the best as of today. You can do in ICFAI, Dalmia Instt at Mira Road, Jamnalal bajaj, NMIMS, Somayya Instt or Indian School of Business, Hyd. The last one is the best one. In BMS you have already studied 50% of MBA subjects and hence it will not be difficult for you

[bhavyakerney]

Hello Sir,

I am Bhavya Kerney. I have cleared my BMS this year in August 2009.

I had few doubt about my career path. Before that this is how my educational background looks like.

SSC -- 2004 --- 68.13%-- First Class
HSC -- 2006 --- 53.67%-- Second Class
BMS (Overall %age) --2009 -- 71.18%-- First class.


I have been selected for an MBA program by California Lutheran University, USA (November 2009 Intake) which is ranked 18th in Western USA. I have got my admission confirmation letter (I-20) from the university and have also cleared the VISA Interview.

As i have scored well in my BMS I am getting admission in University of Melbourne, Australia as well which is ranked 37th Worldwide.

I am yet to start the application procedure for University of Melbourne, Feb 2010 Intake.

However, I understand that Australian University is a better option, but I am confused about the Jobs in USA and Australia.

I am looking out for a Permanent Residence (PR). But to survive I would require a JOB. And as I have completed my Graduation I don't have any work Experience after graduation as required. Will this fact affect my CV while looking out for jobs in Austraia or USA.

I am really confused about my admissions in USA or Australia. And moreover, does an MBA degree in today's competitive world hold that glory and competitive edge required by various organisations.

I wanted a guidance regarding which country should I select for my further education.

USA is HIT by recession, but is recovering as per the economy watch website as per 4th Sept 2009.

Australia is having a jolly good time. But jobs related to management and administration are very less as compared to jobs in the fields of accounting, Finance, Medical and Health Services.

Also, what should be the basic job profile that I must expect after my MBA.

Thanks a lot for reading my query.
Thank You for your help and support.

Kind Regards
Bhavya Kerney

Hi bhavya

Congrats. Go to US. Jobs are plenty. If you are specialising in Finance, come back to India for job here. If otherwise stay back over there. You will get odd jobs while you are doing your MBA like librarian, packing of cakes, teaching hindi, english to chinese students or simple arithmetic.

Even Finance too US is recovering, By the time you finish MBA you can look forward to a nice settlement there. Australia, i am relunctant to recommend going by the racial discrimination. Although job opportunities and studies are good.

You may if you wish pursue in ISB, hyderabad, Singapore or in US an MS degree after clearing GRE and TOEFEL online test scoring atleast 1300 out of 1600. This mark plus your marks in college and the reputation of your present college ie Engg and liquidity ie income statement for Visa (pre visa). are all the deciding factors for your admission.

Once you are done with your MBA...depending on your specialization you would be able to get a good job.

Sir I am persistently facing the problem of answering the question that why i have joined MBA finance after a biology background the reasons for which were on my behalf were more on the emotional side and which the interviewer generally doesn't consider to be good enough for a reason to do in finance specialization.So sir kindly help me out that how I can frame my answer in such a way that the interviewer really get convinced.I hope you get what i mean to say.
Really looking forward for your answer.

Dinesh,

Finance is the sector where too students having your background
would be needed. A financial institution deal with several segments of the economy including, the field of bio-technology. The institution might need an expert when the question of making a feasibility study of a project in the biotechnology comes up for financing purpose. Hence you may suitably answer the interviewer based on these lines.

CFA no doubt is a vast subject. Here you need to put that extra effort. There is no substitute as the placement which you might get in due course of time would adequately compensate you.

[bhavyakerney]

Hello Sir,

If u remember, I am Bhavya Kerney who recently few months back posted a question whether I should go to USA or Australia. As per your advice I am right now in USA. I am here for my MBA from California Lutheran University. However, I had a major confusion regarding the stream in which i should specialize.

Sir, I have scored good in FINANCE in my Bachelors of Management Studies. My presentations and work has always been appreciated by my MARKETING Professor. And to let you know more about my background I am a SCIENCE background student. I am great with computers, especially the NETWORKING side of the IT. I am not too much into PROGRAMMING. I wanted to complete my GNIIT but unfortuntaley I found it very difficult to understand as i had to learn programming and learn various other computing languages lis C#, C++, SQL etc etc. So my educational career has been quiet diverse at this point.

My interest doesnt lie in FINANCE as i am not a kind of person who likes to play with numbers. I know MARKETING is a tough job. Convincing a customer to buy your product or service is the hardest thing you can opt for. I have a good hold on computers.

So after a long story coming back to my original concern... Here in California Lutheran University, I can complete my MBA with a specialization in the following feilds

-Entrepreneurship
-Finance
-International Business
-IT Management
-Management & Organizational Behavior
-Marketing
-Nonprofit & Social Enterprise

I am very confused about my career. Sir, I want to complete my MBA work in USA for a year or so and come back to INDIA. But both the markets of USA and India are quiet diverse.

Sir, please guide me.. in which of the above stream should i complete my MBA and why.

Thanks for reading my query. Waiting for your response.

Kind Regards
Bhavya Kerney
