Is it correct joining NMIMS Mumbai core after having 3 years of IT experience and currently earning 50 000 per month?

To establish your credentials before answering the question, as a second-year student at NMIMS Mumbai, you can confidently say that you have three years of work experience in the IT industry prior to joining NM.

If you're considering doing your MBA, NMIMS Mumbai is a great place to pursue it. You can vouch for it because you're almost finished with your MBA and have been placed in a reputed organization with a decent salary.

In addition to a degree and a good pay package, NM can offer you other things that are very important:

• Industry interface - Since NM is in Mumbai, you have the privilege of connecting with industry stalwarts at conferences, seminars, and guest sessions.
• Batch strength - Networking is a buzzword that you'll hear a lot once you start your MBA. You'll want to know people, and people will want to know you. That's where the batch strength becomes a real strength.
• Exposure - You'll have access to great classroom teaching, be able to participate in case study competitions, and execute tasks if you're part of some cell.

Now, here's a reality check:

• NM is a great place to be. But when it comes to placements, it's generally observed that many people with significant work experience in IT move to IT and consulting roles after their MBA. However, the roles you get once you move to IT again are quite different from what a non-MBA gets. They can include business analyst, product management, pre-sales, and sales roles.
• There have been instances where people have done good projects, won case study competitions, and performed well in their internships. These serve as certain criteria to make a switch to a different field. If you do well, are passionate about what you want to do in the future, and are also a cultural fit for the company, then you will surely be hired.
