The market today is very volatile, I am not just talking about the stock market, even the job market today is the same. At some point of time anything that we do just becomes irrelevant. This is why all over internet you will see more and more colleges offering apply online postgraduate degrees.
This becomes very essential that you are pushing yourself further by adding quality to your resume. I remember initially when I started working I had an MBA and every one considered that to be a good plus to the resume. The times however have changed.
I took a break after my child was born and now when I try and get back into the market I see that many asking me why only an MBA, what else do I have. How have I spent the last few years and what are the new things that I had added to my resume. This is an unfortunate fact but it is the truth. No one has enough of anything.
Like how our needs and wants only increase, same way the need of the degrees on your resume also increases. I have seen people who have done their engineering degree, then an MCA and then an MBA. Are so many degrees really necessary?
The fact of the hour is that it is actually a very basic requirement now. You get judged by the number of degrees that you hold, well if you are like me juggling home and work do you have time to attend full time weekend classes? The answer for me is a big NO. This is why I had been researching about online postgraduate degrees whatever I have read so far has led me to believe that I still have hope and will be able to go a long way in my career without actually spending time outside of my home.
The basic needs to run online postgraduate degrees are simple. I need an internet connection that should work at all times. I have to spend time on the internet visiting the website of the university I am registered to. Most of them even have video and audio aids. These help me understand apply online courses better. There is also an online forum that I can talk to regarding my concerns and questions. I even have a faculty whom I can talk to about any doubts that I would have.
There is another flexibility that I get is when and how many subjects I can write my exams on. I get to choose. The course duration may extend further, however I at least am able to do it on my terms and not worry about anyone else. However I did not get to this stage just immediately, I did my research and then figured out which course that I needed to take and how much time and money I would be investing. Only after this did I actually go ahead and enroll for a course. Now I swear by it and would suggest it to anyone who will hear me.
