Manage episode 413444618 series 3532687
Dennis Guzik is the host of the Be the Ultimate podcast, where he shares valuable career advice.
• One of the most common questions he is asked as a former corporate leader is whether to go to grad school.
• The first factor to consider is if grad school is necessary and if it will benefit your career.
• If the answer is yes, then it's important to think about whether you enjoy the field of study and can handle the time and cost.
• While going to grad school while working full time may take longer, it provides a steady income and potential employer support.
• Full-time grad school offers a more immersive experience but requires financial investment without a salary.
• Another option is going straight to grad school after obtaining a bachelor's degree, which may be beneficial with more experience under your belt.
• Ultimately, the decision should be based on personal preference and weighing the factors of liking the field, needing it for your career, and being able to handle the commitment.
