I am 32 years old and working as a quality manager in the automotive component industry. I have been in this line for over seven years now. I am contemplating doing a full-time MBA (Finance) in one of South-East Asias reputed B-schools. I have done a one-year diploma in financial management and am interested in finance, investments and insurance (am qualified to sell insurance too).
I plan to do an MBA because I feel it would give my career a lift and also because I think I have been in my field (quality assurance) for too long.
