Super insightful. Thanks for sharing!😃
Thanks, Thuto!
Thank you for this video. Do you have a video explaining post-MBA work visa scenario across Europe and USA? I've been trying to find some good quality content on it but unable to. PS. Your videos are super insightful. Been binge watching lately.
Thank you Bhavya! I have done a video like that. I still need to edit it. Will take a while but stay tuned.
@@adrianbruno-mba Eagerly looking forward to it.
Any advice on Masters in Supply chain management rankings?
Currently in MBA but thinking of changing it since I don't want to do management as a job. I prefer working behind the scenes.
Thanks, KT! What do you have in mind for "behind the scenes"?
lol I have def more than 3 years work experience
I’m going to a Leadership and Management MBA program
Tryna move up and the old G’s like to see degrees lol 😂
coould you please talk about the MSRED and the MSRE at NYU and Columbia?
Hi, I was actually offered a spot at NYU's MSRE program but declined joining after all. Both programs, the MSRED and MSRE, are great if you want to enter the world of Real Estate! MSRED is more focused on RE development and gives you more exposure to that field. If you are looking to work in RE on the East Coast, then NYU is the school to choose!!
@@adrianbruno-mba Thank you for your reply! So if I am not sure about the geographic focus (europe or united states) would you choose Columbia or even another program like MBA berkeley with a major in real estate? Actually I heard that Columbia is way better than NYU in this field + reputation. I am from Switzerland and thinking about doing a grad degree in the US. So maybe you can help me a bit out in this matter.
@@deathmonkeygun If you are interested in Real Estate, you should definitely consider Columbia or NYU, whichever school admits you (and gives you a scholarship).
MIT also has a great MSRED program. The good thing about an MSRE or MSRED is that you are specialized and you will be exposed to potential employers in the RE space.
On the other hand, an MBA will give you more options to choose from if you end up not liking RE.
@@adrianbruno-mba thank you so much adrian!
I'm set on doing an MS in Supply Chain Mgmt for several reasons. If anyone wants to share their experience of completing a master's in supply chain, I would highly appreciate it.
Thanks Federico! I hope you will find what you are looking for
I am sorry. Could you give me an advice? I have 7 years experiment in software development. I decided to study master in CS early this year and I found every course easy for me, and I do not learn to much. And I thinking about MBA, it have some value I looking for like leadership. Should I change my major? Thank you. (I consider because I am do not have citizenship or nationality, It is ok if I get MBA and continute work as software engineer?)
Hi David! If you are already halfway through the program, I would just finish it and then apply for an MBA. It also depends on your plans after the MBA. You need to ask yourself if an MBA is beneficial for you or whether it would get you to the same goal as the software development degree.
Hi Adrian, what are your thoughts on IE University Madrid? I was thinking of going for their programs in either Digital Marketing or Strategic Marketing and Communication. But situation somewhat changed as my last employer refused to give me an LOR. Now since I am carrying a few years of experience in marketing, do you think I should straight up go for an MBA or still consider a specialist masters degree? My total years of relevant marketing experience is still less than 2 as of now.
Hi V., IE Is a great school, both for MBAs and Master's. In your case, I would rather go for a specialized Master's, or keep on working for 2-3 years and then do an MBA
If i want to make career in consulting is MIM from a top European college a good option for me ?
Hi Akash! MIM from a top tier Euro school will certainly get you into Management Consulting. There are plenty firms from tier 1 to tier 3/4 hiring right now
Thanks Adrian ........It will be a great help if you will make a video on MIM specifically .
Hi Adrian. I am choosing between Nyenrode MBA and London scool economics master. Can you advise me where to go in order to achieve maximum results in the future?
Hi Azamat! Definitely LSE! It's very prestigious and will open many doors for you! Unless you plan on starting a career in the Netherlands, then Nyenrode might be the better option for you
Thank you very much. your content is unique and universal thanks for such videos
Should I get my Masters in Accounting or an MBA? I want to be a business owner one day but have a Bachelors in Accouting
Hi. If you already have a Bachelors in Accounting, I would go with an MBA, especially if you want to own your business one day. If you want to become an accountant, I would go with the Masters in Accounting or just do the CPA designation
hey coach! currently im a graduate with a majors in finance and have 2 years of work experience in the financial services industry, should i go for an MBA or masters in finance to break into PE/VC/Investment Banking/Asset Management? thanks!
Hi Rickie! I think both options would give you equally good options. Masters in Finance is more of a thing in Europe, whereas an MBA is better for the US. It depends on where you want to end up. I hope that helps!
@@adrianbruno-mba Alright! would it be logical from an employment point of view to do an MS in Finance from the US? Are there good job opportunites post an MS in finance in the US for a foreign student?
@@rickie007 2-3 years is normally where schools make a cut for MSF programs, but it's worth trying. Opportunities are there and they're great! If I were you, I would apply to MBA and MSF programs and see where you can get the best offer including scholarships
In your opinion, could I make the cut for a good MBA program (Not the Ivy league, but something below it but still decent, since I feel they require a really good profile) with 2 years of work experience at the time of application and a 3 year graduation degree?
@@rickie007 Of course you can! Even HBS accepts students with as little as 2 years of work experience at the time of application. Give it a shot and apply to a couple of schools and you will be surprised what the response will be
I had been looking at an MBA mid-career but find the courses to be very dull and uninspiring; (and just too cliché) - looking at Management Science.
Fair enough, Mark! Alternatively, you might want to check out Executive MBA programs that are more geared towards seasoned professionals
I have been thinking of doing MS in International business and I am currently pursuing BBA international business. Please comment whether MS international business is suitable for me or not. And suggest any other course if you think I should also consider.
I would definitely specialize in a certain discipline that interests you the most. If you are interested in everything or can't decide which specialization to choose, I would go with the more general degree
Hi sir how is Boston university for Masters in Management and Babson college for Masters in Finance , I have been selected in both which one I should go with cause Boston has a good ranking in US
Hi Sumit, they're both solid schools. Personally, I would go with Boston University because it is bigger, and hence, has a bigger alumni network for you to network with. Also, their acceptance rate is slightly lower, and their ranking is slightly higher .On the other hand, I would go with the school, who offers you a scholarship or some tuition assistance.
@@adrianbruno-mba sir Boston is 12-15k more expensive than Babson but also has a high brand name and network (also Boston didn’t gave me any scholarship whereas Babson gave me a scholarship of 5k) so should I still accept Boston.
And does brand name and low acceptance rate means they have more career outcomes and higher salaries after completion of the program.
@@sumitpandey5 There is never a guarantee for any desired outcome. Both are schools that will give you equally good opportunities. If you have the time, go and visit both campuses. Schools normally let you sit in their classes and that you can get a good feeling with which school you vibe the most
@@adrianbruno-mba sir I have decided I will go for Masters in Management from Boston University (Questrom School of Business) I know it’s bit expensive but the reason I’m going with it is it’s brand value it has in US.
Also my main confusion was to select any one of the course MIF or MIM
@@sumitpandey5 Good choice! I am sure you will not regret it!
