Hi
My background is Big4 accounting firm and I departed for London in order to move in Investment Banking but it has not come off so I am going to do an MBA and make the transition after completing it.
Because of the move to London I have contracted around the city as an accountant and therefore for the last 12 months I have worked at places like Morgans Stanley etc but do not have worked in a contractual capacity instead of a permanent one which is common in the financial centre.
Therefore, I am applying to schools with no company to support me and no references from bosses because I never stay in any one place for longer than 3 months.
My questions are:
1 How do I make my situation more appealing to a school with the fact that I do not have my old firm behind me?
2 Get over the fact that have no boss to write me a nice reference?
