Hello,
-I had founded and led a brand design business for 3.5 years during my undergraduate studies in engineering.
-Had 20 clients including educational institutions, professional bodies and individuals. Also, did the brand design for a successful chocolate company that deals in exports.
-I have a rich story to showcase my leadership skills through the projects I have done for a variety of clients, also i maintained a 3.4 gpa simultaneously.
-Apart from this, I have won a national level painting competition in India (i am an artist) and have won numerous competitions for my engineering skills during UG.
in short, i am an artist, engineer and an entrepreneur. I am wishing to manage a consumer products industry in the future.
question 1: is my entrepreneurial venture helping or handicapping my profile? how will adcoms of top 10 B-schools in USA view it?
question 2: as I am interested in marketing, is it a good idea to create a graphical resume? (not as abstract as the "google resume" but one which is professional, clear and crisp)
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Ganesh Prasad
