Business Management Studies

Hello,
Interview process-wise, many reputed colleges across India give some weight age to the work experience factor of a candidate and give preference to such people who have scored well in the MBA entrance exam (s) while working. Academic-wise, there are many case studies and classroom discussions which relate directly with corporate life scenarios. Only those who have experienced it first-hand would relate to it easily. Such discussions are also asked in the exams too. Placement-wise, many companies prefer those who have worked previously so that they can handle the job responsibilities better. Not a necessity though, but such folks can expect a much higher and better job package than a fresher.
