Hello,

I would like to listen to your oppinion as I would like to do a career change and not 100% sure what to do best in my situation.

I am Russian, I have a MSs degree in geophysics and after my graduation worked around the world for 6 years as a geophysical field engineer.

Due to financial crisis my company transfered me back to my home country as a Sales manager. That is a good position, but quite a pay drop. I am considering two options: getting an MBA from one of the top 10 business schools, or getting another MSc in a British or American university in Reservoir engineering and continue with oil industry.

I have some good experience, but getting a job straight away there is tough as noone is hiring now.

I would like to move in one of the western countries and get a job there.

Which option would you go for if you were me?
