Subject: Is it good to take CFA program in USA?
Date: 15-Apr-2003
Question: Dear Sir/Madam,
I am pursuing MBA in Finance in Texas, USA. I am sure that I will be back
to India in five years and want to live Indian life. My question is, is
it good to take CFA program in USA with an ambition that this may give added
point to my resume when I apply for jobs in India? Thank you.
Answer: Settling in India will not be easy. The jobs are not plenty,
unless you are lucky. You should seriously look at making a good job in the
US, build contacts, earn money, and come back and set up your own business
and use the contacts to leverage relations that you build in US.
