IIM Bangalore - Indian Institute of Management Bannerghatta Road Answered Questions

Going for MBA can have two directions, one you can pursue MBA as a fresher and work or two you gain some work experience and later, figure out what to do. If you want to go the first way, I believe you should appear for CAT 19/20, and check what is your current status compared to other aspirants around the country. It will give you a rough idea of where you stand. You have around 5 months which is good enough for you to prepare. If it doesn't work, you can get some experience a year or two and then try for CAT once simultaneously. So basically its a question you need to ask yourself. But whatever it is, I would recommend you to definitely appear for CAT 19.

If you are planning for an MBA and willing to switch your job, for now, I would say that the offer is worth a try. Working with one of India's retail giants will definitely add points on your resume and even your prior work experience will be an added advantage. Also, profiles like Store/floor Manager will help you explore more on your inclination towards Operations and Supply Chain Management. This will be very helpful and would give you a more clear understanding when you pursue your MBA. According to my journey in IMT- Nagpur, and having studied Operations as one of my electives I would suggest you can give a try on this offer. My college offers Major specialisation on Operations and you can opt for minors as Business Analytics and IT, Marketing, Finance, HR, Economics or General Management as per your interest. Also, SIOM is one of the finest colleges for Operations Management. You have to secure at least 80 percentile in CAT to get into these colleges, although the cut-off changes every year.
