Here are 10 points every commerce graduate must remember:
- MBA is not necessary to advance your career.
- Do not opt for CA if you are not confident about accounting yet.
- Banking jobs are highly respectable. Do not underestimate them.
- For any higher studies, make sure you have job experience first.
- Improve on Excel, Word and Tally. That is the least you can learn.
- Do not do MCA just because you want to become software engineer. You can learn coding outside.
- Take up any job you get. A small accounting firm or Big 4. Experience counts everywhere.
- Do not waste your year in planning. Practicing for competitive exams is the best way to spend your time.
- If you wish to get into teaching field, M Com is a better option than other Masters. Also, work on your PhD topic in parallel.
- You are not late for anything. There is huge respect for B Com graduates in every field. You can become IAS officers, get into IIMs, become CEOs. Do not feel inferior to Engineers.
