MBA - Net Tangible Value Add

So, there I go today.... finally a tangible value add of MBA.. yes, an employment offer..

On different parameters, I would put my subjective comments as follows

Company: Unheard of. But partners are ex-Gartmore and ex-Goldman and Macquarie.

Role: Senior Analyst

Profile: Brilliant

Responsibilities: Small and Huge. Includes evaluation of deals and serving nespressos (4th employee after 2 partners and 1 admin exec)

Exposure: Direct facing with investees and co-investors and other parties

Bosses: A Scot and an Ozzie. If they were to run for best boss competition, they would win hands down. Probably, one of the handful guys in WORLD, to have blessed with such bosses.

Work - Life Balance: Extremely great. Such that, after other roles I have done in past, I feel little under worked.

Pay: An yet, Industry Standards. No compromise on that.

After all, MBA for me was successful if you were to go by strictest sense of achievement... (though, I dont support that theory which is evident from my other posts)

And is it the end of the Journey, I started on Feb 27, 2008? I don't think so... More posts to follow about other experiences (one with the actual job hunt process)...

and my friend, this is just the start of another journey... ek kahaani khatam toh duji... shuru ho gayi mamu...

WDI Database

today at internship

Head of Intern (yes, this is his position): NUS has WDI subscription right?

Me: Whats that?? (I am proud of my knowledge about databases NUS Library has and was quite shocked that I dint know about it)

HoI: Its World Development Indicators.

Me: Oh Ok. I dint know.

HoI: No worries. You would not know anyways. Its about poverty alleviation. Your job as an MBA is to widen the gap!

How I wish it was true at this stage!
