These skills are huge advantages for candidates seeking full-time roles in a wide array of career paths — particularly media, marketing or communication. But they’re also valuable for entrepreneurs or anybody interested in launching a business. A good idea doesn't become a great business model without the right dose of communication acumen. Knowing how to effectively write, tell stories, nail the intricacies of visual content and market yourself is key — and an advanced degree may be the optimal way of not only gaining these skill sets, but also developing an invaluable professional network.
