After I graduated, I started my career at Bulgaria\u2019s biggest bank (by asset base): UniCredit Bulbank, part of leading European banking group UniCredit. I worked for several years and then attended the Bologna Business School (BBS) to study for an MBA, specializing in Finance and Banking.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Why did you decide to do an MBA?<\/strong><br \/>\nI planned to do an MBA since the start of my career at UniCredit Bulbank and was determined to meet all the criteria to apply to business school. I wanted to pursue an international MBA that specialized in Banking and Finance and also included management skills. I felt the Bologna MBA in Banking and Finance offered a very concrete and practical educational approach, addressing the challenges of day-to-day business in our era of fast-paced change.<\/p>\n<p><strong>How would you describe your experience at Bologna Business School?<\/strong><br \/>\nAn unforgettable, interesting and valuable journey! I was able to acquire a comprehensive modern education that involves teamwork and practical training in a diverse multicultural environment. I became part of a wide business network including mentors from leading Italian and international companies. Additionally, I gained the latest academic training to apply in the constantly changing and competitive financial sector.<\/p>\n<p>Last but not the least, for me the most valuable part of my MBA has been the contacts and friendships that I have developed with people from more than 40 countries, which has truly enriched my worldview.<\/p>\n<p><strong>How has the MBA been of benefit to you in your career?<\/strong><br \/>\nThe MBA for sure boosted my career and helped me to improve my expertise. It helped me to understand the importance of team work and how I can create a strong team spirit The program helped me to broaden my perspective of the world and to discover my strengths and weaknesses, which is vital for a good leader.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Written by Seb Murray.
