jobs in government usually do not require a business degree - you would be wasting your education - talk to your schools job placement office about career choices

What to do after Bachelors degree in International Business? Whats next? options?
I am finishing a Bachelors degree in International Business and want to stay in college. I would like to go to grad school but is 22 years old too young for an MBA or a Master's? Also would I be able to get a Masters in a unrelated field. Thanks

My daughter started in grad school 4 months after her 21st birthday and will be starting her doctorate 4 months after her 23rd birthday next year. So no, it is not too young. And yes you can do an unrelated field but just watch out for the prerequisites if you are thinking of something like Engineering.

Getting into a Master of Business Administration program at 22 could be rather difficult. Many MBA programs recommend or even require you to have a certain number of years of full-time work experience. The rule of thumb is two years for full-time programs and much more for executive programs. The two year requirement is usually part of the requirement for acceptance into a Master's in International Business too. Don't get discouraged, the two years work experience is "not set in stone." Check with the grad school where you are presently working on your Bachelors and see what they think. Good luck!

What is the better thing to do: To study in Australia or in the USA

What is the better thing to do: To study in Australia or in the USA?
I was thinking of either doing an MBA (mainly National/Nova Southeastern) or going for a Master of International Business in Australia. My undergrad is in business and is from the States. What do you think the better choice for me would be in terms of future career prospects?

Management Major VS International Business Major

Management Major VS International Business Major?
I go a popular state-chartered university in the south and just got accepted to a Management Major and an International Business Major. I must choose which one i want to study. Under both majors, i'll be minoring in Spanish. What i really want to do is be an entrepreneur and/or work for a large organization under their legal department. I guess what I'm trying to ask is...which major is better if I was going to get a master's in legal business? The only downfall for choosing International Business major is the possibility of NOT getting a master's in something---thus i'm stuck with a degree that requires a lot of travel!?? I need help in weighing the pros/cons to each major!? In the end i want to ultimately do legal business (some sort of law degree)...which one would look good on an application? thanks!

Firstly if you want to do actual "legal business" then a Juris Doctor is what you need and not a Master's in Law. This degree is for those who wish to analize and teach law and not for those who wish to practice law. As for which major, well you run the risk of not getting into a law school with any major you choose, weather it be business, psychology or English. There are no guarantees. However to answer your actual question, I would study management over international business if you want to study corporate law. International business is a relatively poor degree which lacks a lot of substance and you will learn all you need to know about international law during your time in law school. Management is a more solid degree and will give you a better understanding of how a business and the industries actually work.

I am a management major and I love it. You say you want to be an entrepreneur in a legal department? I really don't know what that would entail, but it seems like Management would be a better degree to go with, then you could get your Master's.

How can you become a business consultant

How can you become a business consultant?
I have an undergrad degree in finance, but relatively little good job experience. It's been really tough for me in the employment market. I was thinking of going for a Masters of International Business or a Masters of Business or Management etc. Would that be a good move for me? It's kind of similar to an MBA, but requires that you have an undergrad degree in business. The MBA doesn't. I know I need experience also, but in what field and what do I need my Masters in? It's just been really hard to get good experience in this job market.

In business job titles do not mean all that much. To be a consultant, normally experience is a prerequisite. Here is what I would do. First, I would make a list of skills that you can provide, or would like to be able to provide to clients. Then decide how you will get those skills you would like to provide. This is a simple step. If your very good at lowering costs, maybe you could provide a expense audit and show where costs can be saved and where they could be redirected. Next, Marketing. Make a website, business cards, and begin calling small firms in your area, and work your way up to larger and larger institutions. Depending on your services target those firms. Something like cost cutting is good for all firms. Pitch it to the firms that really need it, but also to the firms that are doing "ok" as a way to prevent disaster. After you have done that, try for repeat clients, do a really good job, and try and make a service that can be repeated. The service can be as simple as making VBA excel spreadsheets to make their life easier. Once they get used to it, they will probably ask for more. Charge at least 50 dollars an hour, it is essential to give off the impression your the best. Now to your degree. The answer is what curriculum fits your needs. An MBA or a Masters? Or maybe a Professional Certification? What is needed is for your to review your needs, and find something that fits them. Also make sure you go to a top tier school. Many times the school doesn't matter but for Business it matters quite a bit. The only business degree that does not is Accounting Bachelors or Masters as it is simply a means to get a CPA. I would tell you my opinion, but there are many variables. The MBA is good for a general business overview plus a little specification. The Masters is good for specification. It depends on where you see yourself in 5 or 10 years and what services you will provide as a consultant.
