Hello sir,
I have just completed my graduation in Business Administration, and now I am in a dilemma whether to choose a job or to go for further study. My parents, family, and friends are of the opinion that it is very difficult to find a job nowadays, so they are putting great effort into helping me find a job. So please suggest to me as I have applied to some courses, and in between if a job is found, what should I do? Please advise.

First of all, correct all your spelling mistakes in your post and avoid using SMS language in queries. This gives a poor impression and downgrades the seriousness of the post.
Coming to your query - what is your desired job or study? How is the family's financial status? What is your objective in life? Have you decided in which sector to try for a job, or what exactly and why you want to study in a particular field? What courses have you applied for, and what value addition will you get by doing these courses?
Ask yourself searching questions and take a look at your future plans, and act in a way that your plans are achieved, keeping in mind family constraints, if any. There can be no simple answer - study or job; it is based on desire, finances, and family circumstances.

Dear Kiran Gohil,
Your post is amusing and might certainly raise the eyebrows of many who read it. You mentioned that your parents, family, and friends are all keen for you to get a job and are making efforts towards the same. So, what has been your role? Are you not trying for a job yourself? You may be in a dilemma if your thoughts oscillate between getting a job and pursuing higher education.
My suggestion would be to take the first opportunity that comes your way. If it is a job, start working; if it is higher education, study sincerely. Please reread your post and see how many mistakes you have made. It is important to improve your communication skills. Good luck in your endeavor.

As per my opinion, you should go for a job. If you want to study further, then you can opt for distance or correspondence education. After 2 years, you will have work experience as well as a postgraduate degree for better career growth. However, if you are targeting premium organizations to join with a very high package, then you will need a full-time postgraduate degree from premium institutes.
So decide accordingly and proceed. Good luck :)

Dear Kiran Gohil,
I totally agree with the above suggestions. Meet with yourself first if you want a job or to pursue further study.
Secondly, I think you should go for further study because if you do not succeed with this investment, this reason will not be the cause of your failure eventually. You have enough years of age to find a job.
Financial problems do not matter if you really want it. Many students pursue studies by taking out loans, so why not you?

I had a talk with one of the managers of Torrent Pharmaceuticals about my job, and he said that BBA will give you a job, but your career growth will stop after 5 years once you are appointed as an EXECUTIVE. Is it true?

Dear Mr. Kiran,
While I am not sure about the conversation between you and the pharmaceutical manager; however, based on my understanding and short experience, if one stops learning, be it on-the-job training, career growth will come to a halt irrespective of any industry. Depending on your role as an executive, with current learning opportunities such as executive MBAs, career growth should not stop. I believe this will be your first job, so depending on your interest, you can always switch industries once you have some corporate experience and much broader knowledge of other opportunities.
I believe the feedback of career coming to a halt was based on the assumption that you will not continue further education after BBA. Maybe you can have a clear discussion with the manager on this, and that should solve your query.
