Dear Ankita,
It's not like that. You can see an engineer or medical professional becoming an IAS officer. Do they need to have that specific degree to become an IAS?
It's not our fault that everyone wants to go for a white-collar job; even Panavi is planning to do so.
One should think in advance about the field before starting their career.

Finance or Marketing is not a blue-collared work. Regarding your example, I hope you are aware that we need to clear the IAS exam. You've cited an example like an arts graduate wanting to be a manager. I never said anything wrong, but my question is similar to this issue - "You have an engineering degree but are practicing medicine." It's dangerous unless you have proper certifications. I hope you can distinguish between the two.
Sure, we all want to progress in life, but my simple question to her is why do you wish to switch. We all face different issues and react differently to situations.
If you'd read, in all three cases (this case and the 2 other cases in the post I referred to), MBAs have switched their jobs. I'm sure none of the MBAs would be given a blue-collared work. This is when the question arises. I'm saying this from a recruiter's point of view and even for knowledge purposes.
I've also come across queries like "I want to take up MBA(Fin) but interested in HR. Is it possible to get an HR job after having a Finance degree?"
which really forces me to think why do we specialize in one subject and work in a completely different field. A switch post a few years of experience is still understandable, but such a major shift from Finance, marketing, or HR by a fresher is questioned specifically to know WHY rather than mocking.
Also, I am asking this so that the HR fraternity here (Which I guess would include people from both corporate and academia) would be able to understand why this is a rising trend. Is it for personal need or a realization of interest very late or any other reason.
I didn't comment on whether it was right or wrong; all that I need to say is, before deciding on anything, ensure that it would be undo-able...
Hope I haven't been rude. I was putting forth my viewpoints.
