Will doing a second master's after already completing an MBA add any value to my profile?
It depends. A second master's after an MBA can add value if it targets a new specialization or skill set that supports your career goals - such as moving into a different industry or gaining technical expertise not covered in your MBA.
However, if the second degree is similar to your MBA, the benefits may be limited. Employers often prioritize relevant experience and specialized skills over multiple degrees in the same field.
Consider the significant time and financial investment required. Make sure the new degree clearly advances your professional objectives before committing. If you need personalized guidance, connect with your LeapScholar counsellor.
