Hello,

I am an engineering student from India and wish to pursue MBA.
I want to take up the MBA program right after the completion of my degree.
I'm aware of the average GMAT scores required for the top universities.
Can you please tell me if students without any work experience who complete MBA have any scope for jobs, because I've heard a lot of people talking about how students return back home after completion of MBA, being unable to find a job. Is this true? Will I get a job guarantee after the completion on my degree without any work experience?

"Guarantee" is a very wrong word to use when it comes to getting a job after MBA even for a professional with a decade long experience.

Hi Deeksha B,

Thanks for your post. Unfortunately there isn't a specific answer I can provide for your question, as the answers can vary. Most MBA programs do recommend at least 2 years of work experience before applying. These years of work experience can not only be of help for admission into an MBA program, but also for a career after.

Cheers,
Conrad and the Stacy Blackman Team

"Target Test Prep is the closest to the official version of the GMAT exam, about 99% accuracy in terms of the quality and quantity of information. The course has excellently created singular sets of focused lessons and tests for every possible topic that one could come across in the official GMAT exam."

"The TTP course maximizes the efficiency of the time you spend studying. It will take time and effort but I could almost guarantee that if you complete the course exactly as it is laid out you will get an amazing score. They also have a very responsive team willing to help with any questions you might have."

"TTP has two things that I think no other test prep company offers: A teaching approach that reinforces understanding and an attitude that will give you the mental preparedness needed to succeed on the test. TTP gives you a deep understanding of the concept you need to know while teaching you how to think."
