Hello,
Basically when it comes to pursuing management courses at pg level aboard, you need to appear for GMAT, and any English proficiency test amongst IELTS,TOEFL, or PTE. If you don't have work experience then you profile needs to be pretty strong in order to get shortlisted and what can help you in this regard is strong academics with high GPA, whether or not you have participated in extracurricular activities, done volunteering for any service basically the officials want to know if you have been your contribution or achievements apart from your academics, and in case of candidates with no work experience they can focus on scoring high scores in GMAT or IELTS,TOEFL, PTE and letter of recommendations and a strong SOP that is statement of purpose, some of the universities in Canada which offer MBA without and work experience are ,New York Institute of Technology( Vancouver),The University of Windsor,Thompson Rivers University,Brock University to name a few.
recently Im doing bpt and I want to pursue the MBA in Healthcare administration .so this field requires 2 year work experience in health care sector??
Hello Dear,
There is no such requirement for taking admissions in MBA in Healthcare Administration.
The eligibility criteria which one needs to fulfill for pursuing MBA in Healthcare Administration is as follows:
•The applicant must have bachelor's degree in any stream with the aggregate of 50% .
• And you need to crack any one of the entrance exam out of these : XAT/ CAT/ MAT/ GMAT/ SNAP/ NMAT/ CMAT/ NMAT/ KMAT,etc. + Group discussion + Personal Interview.
Hope the information helps.
Thankyou.
Good luck!
I have my masters in Mass Comm but my work experience is Management. I would be comfortable giving a Management UGC NET paper. Is it possible?
In order to appear for UGC NET it's mandatory to have Master's Degree in the relevant discipline with 55% aggregate from a recognized university, in case of reserved categories there is relaxation of 5%, since you have Master's Degree in Mass Communication, you can appear for that subject only, and moreover management and mass communication are totally different and for UGC NET the work experience which you have isn't taken into consideration, what matters is your postgraduate degree in the relevant discipline.
My profile: 90.6%/96%/8 in 10th/12th/graduation from political science. I am a general category student with no work experience. Will getting IIM lucknow easy for me at 99.5 percentile provided that I clear all section cutoffs.

4 years work experience is a good time for your to take this step and make the big move by graduating from a prestigious B-School like SOIL.

A work experience in Manufacturing and Operations definitely is a plus as you will have a lot of insights into how the function happens at the root level and thereby you can understand the course very well. Given your experience, I would suggest taking up something closer to it as it will also boost your chances of placements and give you a higher career growth plus an advantage over your peers.
If your previous work experience involved Analytics or Finance in Operations part, undoubtedly go for it. You can also choose marketing. At the end of the day, it depends on how well you can pitch the learning you have from SOIL as an add on to the previous work experience. Look at what combination will be best for you keeping in view your long term goals.

Like if you are doctor then you have to give foreign entrance examination and going to foreign to get their MBBS degree and then you are able to check up patients.

This type so many opportunities are present for every field. Please clear your graduation degree then it will be easy for us to solve your query.

I have a 3 year Gap due to competitive exam preparation+ Was not getting job due to Covid Lockdown. If I pass all the IT interview rounds and justify my gap reason will I be able to get the job?
Hello,
If you can qualify all the rounds of selection and can give them a solid reason for your 3 year gap then you can surely get that job. They would otherwise state that the there should be no gap, unless stated then the gap wouldn't be a problem. You just need to impress them with your talent and knowledge and prove it to them that you have a passion for working there. These will be tested when they carry out the various tests at different stages of the recruitment process. So do well in those and when asked about the gap in the HR round you can explain your reason to them.
Good Luck
