No matter the profession, students who earn a bachelor’s degree face an immediate, important question: do I enter the workforce or do I stay in school and earn my master’s degree? Graduate school has its advantages. In many professions, earning a higher degree means making more money and having a better chance at promotion.
For many, it’s a difficult question to answer. But they should not feel as if they are alone in this. It’s a tough decision no matter who you are, and it’s not an easy one to answer.
Even with the incredible technological changes throughout the last decade, there is still one document upon which the hope of most job seekers resides: the résumé.

Those graduating from college in 2013 are already getting good news: employers are reporting they plan to hire 13% more college graduates than they did in 2012, according to a new survey.
“The Job Outlook for the College Class of 2013” report from the National Association of Colleges and Employers (NACE) also found that half the employers surveyed planned to increase the number of college graduates they hire. Only one out of every 10 companies reported a plan to cut back on their number of employees.
In business, it is often said that it’s not what you know, it’s who you know. When it comes to landing a job and building a career, both things matter, but who you know can make a crucial difference. Often, it’s the people that you know who bring job opportunities to your attention and could help you to get your foot in the door of a lifelong career. For most college students, it’s their network of connections that indirectly or directly lead to jobs and promotions.
Although we’re in the final days of 2012, there’s still time for business owners to take advantage of several tax deductions before the end of the year. With potential major changes to 2013 tax rates and exemptions, business owners would be smart to take advantage of as many deductions as possible before the close of the year.
There are reasons why the master of business administration (MBA) is currently the most sought-after graduate degree. This degree is often the key to promotion or a better job, and typically viewed as essential for management and executive positions. In many companies it’s almost impossible to be considered for supervisory or top level jobs without an MBA.
There are plenty of reasons to earn your master’s of business administration (MBA) degree online instead of choosing the traditional path of attending classes in person.
Perhaps you can’t abandon your day job to take full-time classes. Maybe the nearest brick-and-mortar MBA program is simply too far away to commute and you can’t afford to move. You may have professional or personal constraints and responsibilities that make attending regular classes difficult or impossible.
