Today I happened to accompany a friend of mine for his SP Jain Student interaction program held at Taj Krishna. The interaction lasted from
All said and done, the GMBA sounds to be an interesting one, with its twin city model 6 months learning in Dubai and 6 months learning in Singapore including a three week learning at Toronto – Canada. Now that promises to be Truly Global.
My poor friend had has own inhibitions as to which specialization does he need to apply for. He was planning for a Specialization in Finance (as numbers and especially cnbc tv18 lures him too much that he is struck to cnbc wondering and trying to make out his own interpretations of those numbers.)
Coming from an Engineering background and working with a Software firm truly made his dream to pursue an MBA-Finance a distant dream. After the Interaction the poor chap was advised to opt for Services Management and Marketing (SMM) a specialization which the Vice President of the college suggested that would be a Best fit for my dear friend given my frez stron analytical skill set.
The suggestion made him feel to runaway from the place to mark his protest.
All through our way back home I had to convince him that SMM also sounds as a good option and had he opted for investment banking or wealth management he wuld have had tough time competing himself with Finance guyz (like CPA’s,CFA’s ). Now SMM shall help him during his placement season as his current 2 years of Work Ex shall help him pick a better deal when compared to a Finance offer wherein he would be considered in the basket of freshers.
I am not sure what he is going to finalize upon but as of this minute, he is inclined towards SMM.
