Engineering-->Marketing
i am a 2007 engineering graduate.(IT) from PICT.presently working with tata consultancy services since the last 4 months. (as a researcher in analytics). i have also been teaching as a visiting faculty in one of the leading mba coaching institutes for the last 8 months.
i have consistently been an academic topper. throughout 10th(92%),12th(CBSE)(92%),BE(distinction).
i would want to know if it is advisable for me to switch my career from IT towards sales/marketing.the reason for the same is that even though i am good at my work and have a reputed organization to work with(TCS),i do not find technical work passionate enough. i would wish to work where i truly enjoy every moment of it. i am a very passionate and enthusiastic individual with excellent communication skills. also would reputed organizations consider a motivated individual like me for a marketing/sales post since my qualification goes against the same. (the biggest disadvantage for me)
i intend to pursue my mba from the top management institutes in the next 2 years.
requesting your valuable advise on the same.
to add::-
i had given cat 07 and had a good percentile 95.i have been waiting to give my best shot therefore did not apply to the other good institutes. i am confident enough and willing to wait for my mba.but i wish to work where i feel my energies and strengths are harnessed. also i wish to learn as much as i can about the business aspects before i do my mba.
