MBA is the numero uno professional degree program that gives the ability for a student to cultivate and mold their career in the best way possible. MBA aspirants keenly join MBA courses to understand real tactics of business and it also offers practical know-how of real-world business problems. A person with MBA degree can be considered to be having jack of all trades. In business s/he might be working in particular area in business but it will be important that s/he has good understanding about the other domains.

How the skills requirement has trended

Let’s see how the assessment of attributes has changed or remained the same. According to the GMAC Corporate Recruitment Survey, proven ability to perform was rated the most important trait by a vast majority of companies, followed by strong oral communication skills, and strong technical and quantitative skills. The other top attributes were history of increased job responsibility, strong writing skills, industry where candidate had prior work experience, strong academic success, and occupation in prior work experience, years of work experience, and relevant language skills. Global experience, professional certifications and licenses, and social media presence were among the attributes at the bottom of the list.

Candidates should not just have education and academic achievement but also an ability to correlate their newly acquired knowledge or skill with prior work experience.
