Hello,
I am currently working in a HR Consulting firm as a Recruitment Consultant with exp of around 14 months (8 Months in HR ) & will be working in my current company till Dec’14 (bcuz of contract). now I am planning to go for MBA but m confuse between part-time mba (evening lectures) & Full time MBA. From sometime I have done some research on same topic.
My conclusion is:
1) We all know that for success we don’t need any degree, we can achieve all our targets by working hard & etc etc….but it looks good on paper only. Practically in today’s world no one give a shit to this thought process
2) MBA is worthy only if a individual completed his/her mba from top tier college/institute (again I am talking abt practically, I knw knowledge, experience, hardwork,excellence etc etc are more important)
3) Part-time MBA from top tier college- individual have around 5 yrs of experience+ MBA degree (But is it worthy ?? does corporate entertain this kind of peoples ???, yes they do
I would like to add that in my research I have interacted with some HR Heads, seen lot of cv’s of Senior people in HR (Exp of 10+ yrs). many of them wer from XLRI, IIM’s(very few). the list of Part-timers wer much more(Colleges like JBIMS,Welingkar,NMIMS). they wer earning gud amount of money & designation. The sector I was focusing was BFSI & Consulting, don’t want to mention company names but those companies includes, India biggest mutual fund company, Big-4’s, Rating agency etc.
So my point is that an individual can achieve der goals professionally , earn gud money without MBA degree from top tier college. (again lot of people will say its totally depend on individual to individual, der skills, knowledge etc & its totally right but we have to think practically also)
My conclusion may be not fully correct bcuz I just interacted with some people, done some surfing over internet, & even don’t have a good exp in corporate world.
So need everyone view on it, does corporate really entertain people without mba degree (Specially in HR), so I can decide what should I do full time MBA or part time mba.
I think i have 2 options
1 ) 2 yrs full time MBA from 2nd tier or 3rd tier college/institute anywhere in india (bcuz of fee structure & CAT,CMAT scores)
OR
2) 3 yrs part time MBA from gud college-Mumbai (JBIMS,NMIMS, K.J Somaiya, Welingker )
So plz you people can guide me on this or anything additionally on this will be great help or may be some gud learning exp.
It went toooo long ryt ?? ;)

Hi Kishor,
Good research and analysis. Suppose I serve you two dishes. One is plain paneer sabzi and the other one is paneer in butter with good garnishing. The fact is that the taste is the same, but everyone will prefer a dish that is designed, decorated, and served better as it catches one's attention.
The same applies to our corporate culture. Employers will look at both CVs (a person with an MBA and a non-MBA), but they will prefer the one with an MBA degree rather than a non-MBA. However, the true colors will be revealed in the interview process and after joining.
Therefore, I suggest you pursue an MBA from a reputable institution and try to search for jobs in the financial sector or any high-paying field since you already have experience. You will definitely secure a job, and an MBA degree will help you clear up some doubts, enhance your knowledge, and enable you to aim for senior HR positions in the future, whether through internal promotions or in another company.
Let's see what our seniors have to say about it. Looking forward to some good points. Good luck!

Hi Lavika,
Thank you for your valuable reply and explanation. I think I got my answer in your first paragraph itself :) Plus, currently, I am working in the BFSI sector, and I was a little confused about this sector. But now it's also cleared (2nd para), so thank you again. However, I am also looking for some more points from our seniors.

Hi Lavika,
I got your point and I totally agree with your perspective on the importance and value of an MBA degree. It is true that an MBA degree can be very beneficial to individuals. However, I have a specific query regarding Full-time MBA versus Part-time MBA. While an MBA degree will undoubtedly be advantageous, I am curious about the effectiveness of a degree obtained through part-time MBA programs.
I am not referring to correspondence or E-learning MBA programs. In my experience, individuals holding part-time MBA degrees have achieved high positions. This outcome also heavily relies on their skills and experience. Many of them pursued their part-time MBA after gaining 3-5 years of work experience.
I hope this clarifies my question.
