Career prospect in Germany for no engineer


Salome

Hi everyone,

I?m preparing for attending a MBA program in Germany next year. Mannheim seems to be an attractive option to me. But after reviewing the posts in the forum, I wonder how big my chance is to get a job in Germany after that, as I?m not an engineer. Can any body help me to analyze my situation and tell me if the investment in MBA is worthy in my case?

Personal profile:
28-year-old female from China
+5 years work experience in German companies in China for sales and management in field of machinery and automation.
2 years as GM in a small German company in China
First Bachelor title in German study (Germanistik), GPA 3.8
Second Bachelor title in mechanic, GPA 3.8
Fluent German, English, Mandarin

What?s the possible career direction for me after MBA study, if I wish to work in Germany?

Thanks a lot for your advice in advance!

(PS: my second bachelor title is gained from on-job-education, which is not acknowledged by German universities, so no chance for M.Sc.)

I think you have lots of choices. German and Chinese businesses get on well, and you seem in a perfect position to accelerate effective relationships between business partners, to lead cross-cultural teams and to work in larger companies on more complex engagements. Working in industry will be more likely, but don't rule out consultantancy.
