Hi!
I am Pooja. I have been working in a consultancy for more than 1 year, gaining valuable experience in recruitment. However, I now wish to transition from consultancy work to joining a company, which requires me to have a degree or diploma in HR. I have completed a one-year diploma in HRM from IMT Ghaziabad. My next goal is to pursue an MBA, and I am seeking guidance on where to pursue it while continuing my current job. I am based in Gurgaon.
Kindly help me.

Hi Pooja,
To pursue an MBA along with your job, you must look for institutes providing distance learning MBA programs or institutes offering MBA programs specialized for working professionals.
For distance learning, you may consider Symbiosis Institute of Management, Pune. For more details, click on the link http://www.scdl.net.
For the second type of institutes, I do not have more ideas.

Hi Pooja,
I presume that you want to do a full-time MBA course.
I would suggest that for good solid Business School education, you should not settle for less. This will give the right direction to the whole career that is ahead of you.
Also, it is strongly recommended that you join a residential MBA program with hostel facility. One tends to learn so much more with fellow hostellers.
Also, MBA education should be pursued with single-minded dedication for the next two years; no other distractions, please.
Choose an institute which has people from the industry as faculty. Theoretical Ph.Ds won't do. MBA is a practitioners' degree. It should be taught by people who have worked in the corporate sector, some industry, or who have done their own business. It is my experience that the faculty (whether PhD or not) who have never served in the corporate world, nor in the industry, nor have done any business somehow do not qualify to teach MBA students. In fact, they have no business at all to poke their nose in as far as business school education is concerned.
Once you take admission, you will hear plenty about the CASE STUDY method. This is another big fraud perpetuated by educationists to keep their fangs firmly entrenched in MBA education also. The case study method was good (it was started by Harvard in 1921) until the sixties or seventies. According to me, it is obsolete now. In the name of research, the educationists have made a mess of MBA education.
One more point. To all those who seek my advice, I always recommend that some working experience is essential to grasp the subjects deeply with clarity on how to apply the concepts in the real corporate world. You have an advantage that you have some experience.
In Google, if you type "Business Schools, India" or some variation of this effect, you will get all the relevant info. Choose your institute carefully according to your personal circumstances.

Hi Pooja,
Please try to locate colleges in your area offering part-time university MBA courses. Personally, I feel it is better to attend a part-time college while continuing your job instead of pursuing a correspondence course. This way, you get to interact with people and share ideas too.

Many would be interested in distance learning MBA. I came across a college in Bangalore named BMA India. The college has tie-ups with many major overseas universities like Nanyang University (Singapore), EDU (Australia), etc. I also heard that they have very good campus infrastructure and a great faculty team.
