Happy to provide my story on the other side. Spent two years at Accenture under Technology mostly working on business analysis for implementations and PMO.

Left for Facebook for a role in strategic analytics in BizOps with 180k TC.

Few tips for looking at exits:

1) Referrals are a huge tool for getting your foot in the door. At Facebook it guarantees that atleast your resume is given more than a glance.

2) A well constructed story/resume can offset any weak points in your experience

Hi all,
I am targeting ISB next year and by then would probably have a package of ~16-17 LPA.

Some of my reasons for going for an MBA are:

1- To have a tier-1 college brand name (engineer from tier 1-2 college)
2- Using campus placements for getting into product role
3- I know it fits nowhere in the list of a genuine reason, but really want to go back to college life
4- Lastly, getting a jump in salary

Please help me in understanding if I am in the right direction. Really appreciate any help.
