International Business

The development prospects in the region of international business are colossal, principally in light of exponentially expanding international trade. An MBA graduate having the degree in international business can work for either private or government sector organizations. The nature of work requires to work under global assignments and move starting with one nation then onto the next as the organisation administration obliges you to do. An MBA, in IB, graduate can also opt to work for Indian or foreign MNCs in the International Business department/division, import and export departments of companies, global logistics companies like shipping or airlines, global tourism sector, international consultancy firms and international courier companies. Job Roles
As an MBA in International Business and with required experience, you get work on the posts like:
Project Manager
International Logistics Manager
International Business Development Manager
International Finance Manager
Export Managers
International Business Consultant
International Marketing Manager
Investment Banking Managers
Accounts Manager
Brand Manager.

Both HR & Marketing are important in business and both require different skill-sets. In my opinion, MBA in marketing would have better scope because:-
1. Marketing is closer to the revenue of a business. Generally, companies consider marketing as Profit-center and HR as Cost-center. If you do well in marketing, your contribution would be easily recognised by top management.
2. I think marketing would have more jobs. As soon as a startup is founded, marketing executives are needed. However, HR execs hiring could be postponed or outsourced till company becomes bit stable. In the same company, size of marketing team would be bigger than size of HR team.
3. Many B-schools don't offer HR discipline, but almost everyone offers Marketing. So, you may get less options to study HR. It could also be seen as a signal about demands of jobs. However, HR has some advantages as well. If everyone starts thinking like the above points, you would get less competition in HR. So, with lesser efforts, you can easily grow in HR career ladder also. By the way, most of the top managers need to learn HR skills over the time, because they need to hire, fire, retain & mentor employees & team. If you are passionate about HR's roles & responsibilities, then there is no harm in learning it.
