By "working" I would say yes.  What does it do?  It gives another number for schools to make a quick evaluation of a student.  Are the numbers consistant across the board?  No.  But GPAs are not consistant either.  Basically due to the sheer volume of students who apply to universities, something like this is needed, as it would be almost imposible to investigate each and every student who applies.  You need something to weed-out the vastly unqualified students who apply to programs.\n\nDo good students occasionally do bad on the SAT?  Sure, that happens, but the rest of your student portfolio should be able to indiacte that the SAT score was a fluke.

I'm not sure that is what it is called, but you can get college credit for work experience in the same field.\nIt is up to each institution how much credit they will give.\nYou need to document you work experience, any non callege classes in the field, and any CLEP test on forms provided by the institution, and they will evaluate it and determine the amount of credit if any they will award.

From the little I know, yes, even though the work might not tie directly to your degree. If, for instance, you work at a pub for some hours a week consistently for a year or two, or more, it shows an employment history, the ability to hold a job, and so forth. \nI have a mate who put himself though two college degrees that way, and thinking of another graduate degree before he is done. Sainsbury's the job as of last word. \nI put myself through years of education in the part time work and school thing. It is nice to have some sort of history other than academics. Good grades mean nothing to an employer if the applicant is unable to work with others, etc.

Put the relevant employment details and achievements first - you don't want to to wade through a lot of stuff about school and being a prefect etc

Most people go to b-school for these reasons:\n1) Career Acceleration (Fast track, promotion, etc.)\n2) Switch Function / Industry (Engineering to Investment Banking)\n\nYou want to talk about where you are now, where you want to be (after your MBA), and how a MBA degree will help you get there.

It is the ultimate job-seeking paradox.  You need related experience for most positions, but in order to get the experience, you need experience (if you follow my drift).  \n\nThe best thing you can do is to seek some "out of the box" experience.  Consider similar activities where you could volunteer for experience, check for related classes at a local school/college, tap into anyone and everyone you know who might help you get your foot in the door somewhere.  \n\nGood luck!

Try to apply for companies,if ur profile matches their requirement u will definitely get call to attend recruitment drive.If u do well in all the rounds definitely you will be getting a job.\nIf not to gain experience you can join in a Recruitment/Placement firm.\nI don't think there is any difficulty in getting job with recruitment/placement firm.\n\nAll the best for your career.

Do you really think an employer is going to value a degree that you get without studying?\n\nJust go down to Kinko's and get one printed out if you want to do it like this...\n\n** UPDATE:\nSorry, I misread your question. Some universities will give credit for work experience but will still make you sit an examination to make sure that you know what you claim.\n\nIt is unlikely that they would let you have a complete (legitimate) degree in this way and you would still need to pay to sit each of the exams. Good luck!\n\n** UPDATE II (for Katerina):\nI was referring to degrees where they do RPL (recognition of prior learning). I know that here in Australia you can get some concessions for units in finance type degrees provided you can sit and pass the exams. Unfortunately they sometimes make them a bit harder than usual and you do have to pay a fee.\n\nMy point was that this would not be available for the whole course so you can't get away from study altogether if you want a degree that means anything.\n\nI get lots of spam in hotmail about pay for degrees like I mentioned before I reread the question.

I know a few people who have completed theor MBA from top business schools and they all have fantastic jobs now. I don't think it is guaranteed but it definitely puts you a cut above the rest

Well, in what field is your BE? In my opinion, it is easy to get into the regular software companies very easily with just a BE degree, no matter what the field of specialization. I'm sure examinations are conducted at a national level by companies like Infosys, Wipro and TCS. Apply to these, it should be fairly easy to make it in these companies. \n\nOnce you get in there, a few years of experience should be good to get you into more specialized IT companies. Else, you can always continue working at the place you make it in. All the best.

One-way to kick-start a career is to take a Masters of Business Administration (MBA). With the speed of business activities accelerating in the global marketplace, people need to be more commercially aware than ever. The MBA qualification is the well- established route to gain the necessary skills and knowledge.\n\nThe MBA aims to build on the foundations of work experience and, by providing new skills and knowledge, to enable the student to make the transition to a higher level of responsibility. MBA students typically will have made significant career progression for a number of years after their first degree. They should have an in-depth knowledge of either a function or role and a specific industry sector\n\nMany of those who decide to take an MBA have achieved their initial career goals. They may have qualified professionally or have reached a position of significant responsibility. However, although they may be knowledgeable within a certain role or industry, their immediate career options are limited. New skills are needed if they are to progress to positions of greater responsibility and increase the scope of their career options. The MBA, as a general management qualification, offers a wider range of options than any other alternative postgraduate qualification.\n\nOne of the most important functions of the Association of MBAs is providing quality control by validating MBA-awarding bodies through a system of accreditation. Currently 37 of the 118 business schools in the UK have programmes that are accredited by the Association of MBAs.\n\nThe value attached by schools to such accreditation is highlighted by the fact that many overseas schools, even as far away as Asia, are now seeking this mark of quality control. There are currently 26 accredited schools on the European continent and an increasing number worldwide. Assessment criteria are rigorous and acts as a kind of consumer protection for prospective students.\n\nThose without work experience should not consider MBA study. The Association advises recent graduates to defer until they have at least two, and preferably three or four years solid work experience. A Master in Management degree, which is aimed at those who lack work experience, is an alternative. The curriculum largely follows that of the MBA. It is far cheaper than an MBA, is offered by some of the best schools, and although it does not have the kudos of the MBA it is well regarded in the business community.\n\nAccording to the latest Association of MBAs Career and Salary Survey, the salaries of MBA graduates have risen consistently over the past four years. All have achieved above average earnings highlighting the MBAs positive impact upon salary levels. The survey also shows that respondents receive both immediate and lasting career enhancement following their studies. Over half of the respondents now hold senior management positions, with the number of MBAs still in junior positions considerably reduced. MBA graduates enjoy on average 2.5 promotions post qualification.\n\nRespondents were asked the extent to which the MBA has shaped their personal outlook. The vast majority said that achieving an MBA has increased their self-esteem allowing them to be more assertive. This confidence takes the form of strong convictions that they are now able to compete with the best.\n\nThere is no substitute for the experience of living and working abroad. Learning to adapt to the social and business cultures of another country is a key skill for those likely to work with overseas partners.\n\nFew countries can compete with Britain as a popular destination for MBA study. . There are a number of reasons for this: For most of the world, the language of business is English. That rules out a number of otherwise excellent programmes in non-English speaking countries. Also, students with a good standard of spoken English will find it easier to adjust to living conditions in the UK. Average fees and living costs are lower

You might need to take a few undergraduate courses to meet admissions requirements but there should be no need get another bachelors.  Just check with the school you want to go to.
