MySurvey

Only work experience relevant to the field of specialization matters

4-6 years within the job makes a fresher is as good as any one with a prior work experience

People with work experience find it difficult to adapt to a different work culture

Attitude alone can compensate for lack of prior work experience in an MBA course or for that matter in a job

Our company prefers to recruit MBAs only with work experience

We decide about recruiting freshers or work experience MBAs o a case to case basis

We prefer freshers for a sales job
