Most students passing out from ordinary MBA colleges are either remaining unemployed or working for 5 to 10k salaried jobs. So if it is an MBA, it must be from an IIM or similar ranked B-school.
2. You may go for Indian Professional Accounting Course like CA/ICWA. However, get ready to study hard for the next 3 to 5 years before
