I have an offer for Concordia John Molson for the MBA starting in 2020. I've read through this thread which is making me hesitate to accept.
I am from India with work experience in the UK. Now I would like to move to Canada. I do not have a large budget.
Mainly I am having a hard time understanding if it's possible to get a job in Canada after graduating with a John Molson MBA. I do not speak French but I am open to jobs outside of Quebec. I cannot afford the MBA from McGill and living expenses in Toronto seem very high.
Please advise.
What are your other options? Where else did you apply/get in?
Sure it is possible to get a job. It is possible to get a job in Canada even without an MBA - the question is how hard will it be to get that job. Also what type/level of job and what field? Are you looking for an entry-level analyst position? A manager? A director? You can then ask current international students at Concordia if you can achieve your dreams with their MBA. It might be possible, or it might not. But it won't hurt to ask them.
That's how I made my decision way back in the past. I contacted various schools' students (I asked the admissions staff for current student contact names). You will be surprised how candid they are. Unlike admissions staff, current students will spill the beans - whether positive or negative.
