Hi All,
I just noticed this in the employment history section of the HBS application:
"It is strongly recommended that you confirm your title, starting and ending salaries, and dates of employment with your Human Resources office (or its equivalent) before completing this section. The MBA Admissions Board reserves the right to withdraw an offer of admission already made if any discrepancy is found."
In the year before I left my last job I was a business development analyst full time, but I did not have an official title change from my engineering role before that. I separate these two as different titles on my resume because it is confusing otherwise (and my manager would agree with the change), but from an HR file perspective I was still a Development Engineer at my time of departure. Is this discrepancy going to cause problems?
