    Hi,
    I.E.S (Indian Engineering Services) exam is designed for recruitment of engineers in government services while CAT (Common Aptitude Test) is meant for MBA aspirants.
    Both are high intensity exams though have different routes. Ideally you should go for I.E.S and secure a government job since MBA can be taken up once you earn reasonable experience.
    Go for Executive MBA which is meant for working professionals and will definitely help you to obtain a challenging profession which would provide you with adequate career growth and good compensations packages.

    Hi,
    As per your query, I would suggest you to work for some years and then opt for further studies, The advantage of this step would be that after working for few years you would know which course to pursue that can further enhance your career prospects.
    MBA is a good option, as it will further enhance your career prospects, but before opting for any course I would suggest you to first decide in which field you wish to build your career and accordingly you may select the best course as per your interest and liking.
    I would request aru.chopra to give details regarding IES.
    All the Best.
