on job hunting

[skthewimp]

I'm very suspicious about job openings which say "CA/MBA". I get the feeling they are looking for fighters only, with not much requirement for much intelligence on the job.

hmm...why do you feel this way? Engineer/MBA would be a better thing, or what?

And if you are an MBA from one of the top colleges (which I know you are, cackle cackle) surely intelligence must be counted in...?

[skthewimp]

CA/MBA means either a CA or an MBA. and the primary quality of CAs is to be meticulous and perfect in whatever they do. and to follow processes. intelligence isn't a necessity

Oh, ok, I thought it was a CA *followed* by an MBA (which many of KM's classmates are.) ...and I do feel that to pass any exam that has a 2% or whatever pass rate, also needs some intelligence...why do you feel it isn't required?
