Career Advice for post-MBA and a bachelor’s in Psychology.
I recently graduated (albeit late ~5-1/2 years) for my bachelors in Psychology in December, but it was NOT the career I wanted to pursue anymore by the time I graduated.
I managed to land a full time job as an account specialist for procurement/operations in the aerospace and defense industry early last year.
Now, with a year of work experience, I’m looking to complete my MBA at UNH-Durham.
If I stay at my current job, I’ve been told they want to fast-track me. Whatever that entails.
However, I’ve been heavily interested in pivoting to finance ops or management consultant roles. I love the business side of my job, but I want to take it to the next level and earn a higher salary than what procurement roles could offer.
I’m not sure if I’m making the right move or wasting my time. Unfortunately, I had a very low GPA in undergraduate from messing around my first few years, which limited my options for MBA programs this early on.
What could I do with a BA in Psychology and an MBA in finance/business analytics?
Any help/advice would be greatly appreciated!
