Hi,
Thanks for this good initiative. I am applying to schools this year and i am targeting Cornell. I would llove to understand more about the school, the admissions process, what is the cornell adcomm looking for in a candidate etc. A lot of information is present on their website of course. But a conversation with someone who has experienced it all would be awesome. My brief profile and contact coordinates below. Let me know if a call is possible sometime this week. **GMAT:

In this project i have travelled to the US and spent time there to understand the retail market and client business. I currently head this engagement and spend majority of my time on it
GSK Experience: I was an area sales manager and led teams from size 5 to 10. Then was a Brand manager for 1.5 yrs and was part of a very successful brand team (brand sensodyne). Overall good leadership exp in this phase of my career and lots of challenging assignments to talk about.
