MBA is an academic degree while CMA is a professional designation. For MBA, the critical point is where you are getting the MBA from. An MBA from Harvard is quite likely better than a CMA qualification alone; but an MBA from an unknown school or “diploma mill” will be of little use. In terms of the practical question of which designation will help find a job, it is complicated because an MBA or CMA alone should not be the deciding factor. The educational and more importantly working experience count a lot too, so do the performance during the interviews. Having both is certainly a “win-win” strategy that works for many people, but then, either MBA or CMA require significant commitment for one to pursue. At the end of the day, the school or the designation is not what gets you the job – you are! Thanks
