Should I opt for higher studies or pursue a job after completing Online LLM and why?

For anything else, like litigation or joining a corporate firm, etc. , it is advisable to start as early as possible as the field of law is very pragmatic and dynamic and practical exposure is the most important factor when it comes to growth. However, if your interest lies in teaching, policy making, etc. , you can opt for higher studies. Online LL. M. is very different from a classroom course in LL. M. While the former does add to your CV, the practical aspects, the discussions and the research form an integral part of the latter, hence making it a well-rounded experience. The choice between the two is essentially a question of where one sees themselves in five years in terms of work and career.

If you want to study more, it is your choice. You can go for Ph.D which will give you a better perspective and knowledge of law, but I would suggest that you be specific with what you choose next because starting a job is also a good option for you as to earn money.
