Hi guys,
Despite having 2 years of experience in content writing, I have been receiving job offers with salaries significantly below the industry standards. I am thinking whether pursuing an MBA or acquiring another degree would enhance my chances of securing positions that offer fair compensation. Could obtaining additional qualifications potentially lead to better remuneration in the field?

Depends on what your career goals really are. If you want to stick to content / copy writing, I recommend you narrow down on an industry vertical (b2b saas, health tech, etc) or content format (short video scripts & storyboarding, memes, etc.) or creative strategic planning (by getting better at understanding customer insights). If you wish to change your role /skill set altogether, only then pursue another degree.
