Should I Be Worried About My Lack of Relevant Experience for MBA Placements?

Dear Mr Mayank, First of all, I would like to keep my question anonymous. I have relocated to India in the past month after spending around 20 years in the Middle East. I worked as a HR manager in an MNC for the past many years but had to leave due to difficulties in the market situation after the pandemic. Additionally, my entire experience is in the Middle East. I have been applying for related jobs in HR here but to no avail. I have completed my MBA on a part-time basis from an Indian university while I was working in the Middle East.  I have certification from HRCI for SPHRi and have additionally completed HRBP training from AON. Do you think my lack of Indian experience and lack of a full-time MBA will be a hurdle for getting a good offer from companies?

I am 23years old male living in kolkata and a bcom general graduate with 73.52% in 2022, after that i taken gap years for mba entrance preparation but not able to crack or get desired percentile in any. Currently in 2024 i am repeating again for mba entrances to secure admission in 2025. I have no work or internships experience, no awards or certifications. I got 51.17 in 12th commerce and 54.71 in 10th. I got only a digital marketing beginner certification by google digital garage earlier on 2023. Currently i taken a digital marketing course from udemy of digital marketing to hone and develop the required skills I have been searching and applying for jobs since graduating but not able to get any desired one. Now i want to get into a good mba college tier 2 because may not eligible for tier 1 and 1.5 as per my profile but i will try anyways. So for that i need to make my profile good and need certifications and jobs or internships. I interest in sales, marketing, more but also Hr domain. But nowadays i am only getting Inssurance sales, bpo, telecaller or telemarketer, Kpo, sustomer support type jobs of around avg salary of 150000 pa. Which a 12th pass candidate also getting. I often thinks to get into bpo to gain experience and money to fill my profile and manage preparation expenses but also fear that what if i get stuck in that industry. I wanted to do mba to enchance and start my career in a management role to achieve a leadership role in upcoming years as a professional in sales and marketing industry. I don't know, i think i am stucked and lost in spiral web between situations and aspiration. I also thinking to get into banking or try govt. Exams to secure a job but i also feel that it will distract me more from my real life goals. I was not a great student or person earlier but now i am changed i know my responsibilities and i know my goals but i want a clear view to walk on that path. Please help with your genuine guidance. THANK YOU

On this site, I saw that you advised a woman against pursuing an MBA due to age constraints and lack of work experience. I am wondering if it would be the right decision for me to pursue an MBA now, as I am concerned about not getting placed afterwards. Would my preparation for government and bank exams be considered as work experience? With the Telangana MBA counselling date through ICET approaching, I would appreciate any guidance, as I do not want to invest in a degree that may not lead to employment. Nevertheless, if I decide to pursue an MBA, I am committed to giving it my 100%
