wow 770 is top quality.
Why do i want to do one?
a number of reasons.
- Firstly, I was always an acedemic...until about the 3rd year of my degree when i sorta got off track with a lively social life. so i want to redeem that. I think i have lost my competitive edge and surrounding myself with competitive people, will get that back. Being a contractor, while you work, you aren't competing with your peers in terms of climbing some sort of a corporate ladder
- Secondly, my first permie role flew me to USA, Australia, NZ, UK several times. I didn't enjoy the industry and the technologies i was dealing with,, so i quit. Since then i have gotten the travelbug. I believe a "Proper MBA" like someone mentioned earlier will get me into a job that could fly me places on a regular basis. As a contractor in my current role, they have only flew me from London to Newcastle a couple of times. And once a 36 hour stint in India. I miss the travelling.
- Thirdly, Eventually I want to get out of the pure IT market. I still want to be involved in tech industry generally, but want to be in a position where I can make decisions where big money is involved. I believe a business degree of somesort will clue me up a bit. I lack indepth knowlege of how big business works.
- Fourthly, ego. (I hate to admit it, but i think a degree from a good university will boost it. Yes being a contractor, my ego regarding pay is already good. but i want to ego^2 it
).
