What is worth more - completing a Marketing MA or moving to China to become a project manager

What is worth more - completing a Marketing MA or moving to China to become a project manager?
What is worth more - completing an MA or moving to China to become a project manager? During the last 3 years, I have worked to get a master at marketing but while working at the same time. The result is I had a job offer to project manage with my company in Beijing. It's really a great opportunity as I started with the company two years ago at entry level. However my university won't defer my thesis any longer and wants it by the years end. Should I reject the job or the masters?

talk to the company if u would be able to have some time to finish up before u go. tell the company that u will also be bringing them a better work quality. but i think it's kind of a waste of your time and money to just throw the last step of your degree away, although jobs are really hard to find these days. good luck.

Since you've spent three years on your masters, I would definitely complete the degree. It shows employers that you follow projects through to completion as opposed to quitting before completing the task. Can you get a better job with this degree? That in itself is debatable in the economy, clearly. However, it CAN NOT hurt. It may be one item that differentiates you from other candidates. Moving to China to become a project manager may or may not be a step in the right direction for you but you have to be the one to decide that. Keep in mind that it is very expensive to live in Beijing, regardless. I have a friend who is in marketing who lives there now but he's further along in his career and makes six figures, as a result.

Talk to the job offering company and sort it out. Usually they can wait. I'd say the degree really matters. Even if they cannot save the job for you, I'm sure you can find another job with your fine degree, especially in Beijing.

I have a BA in English but want to change to a career in Marketing. Will a Masters help or do I need a degree

I have a BA in English but want to change to a career in Marketing. Will a Masters help or do I need a degree
I am currently teaching but want to change careers. I have a BA in English and a PGCE in English, Media and Drama. All the Marketing jobs I have come across require a Marketing degree or qualification. Would a Masters in Marketing be enough to get me a job or would I need to have a degree in Marketing? Any general information on how to make myself more employable in a Marketing position would also be much appreciated. Thanks

I have an English degree and was a teacher before moving into Sales. I can't speak to marketing per se but found I didn't need a degree to get into sales. I highly recommend B2B sales -- the money is potentially terrific, it's my impression you have more control than you do in marketing and after teaching the pressure of sales doesn't seem that intense. Sellingpower.com publishes a list of companies that have good sales training programs for sales people, salesguy.org publishes various lists on selling and has a good newsletter and millerheiman.com has a good newsletter.

I was a marketing consultant for 7 years. First, find a mentor in the field of marketing consulting and see if they will help you get starting...maybe working for them. Two try to establish yourself as an expert in an area - research, promotions, event planning, communications, advertising, internet, etc. by giving seminars for the local Chamber of Commerce or writing articles for the local papers. Three start a network of associates to get referrals. Good luck - it is great fun!

Your decision will depend on the specific sector and sub-sector in which you want to consult (stay in health care, move to other industry specialty - perhaps supplier to hc, etc). For this response, I'll use 'HC' to cover the assumed healthcare industry. Who influences the leadership of the HC area you're experienced in? Other consultants, consortiums (think tanks etc)? What about the smaller (boutique) types of consultants who have a very specific niche that they focus on and are well regarded in? Very importantly, get out to visit your company's customers, regardless of whether this is the specific sub-sector you want to go into. Find out and confirm what their challenges are, how your company helps them (quantify the impact as much as possible) AND find out about the other areas of their biz and who the work with as vendors/consultants in those areas. Connecting these dots is important. Then network with the right folks. You can even ask your customer for an introduction to the other vendors - not for a career discussion, but for a broader and better understanding of their biz so that your company can do a better job in serving them. Good luck!
