Hi,
I'm a non-engineer Indian, looking to enroll in B-School overseasand have been preparing for the GMAT(with great difficulty).
Would be extremely grateful to understand from those with experience whether my application stands a chance at a good business school :
Age : 30
Gender : Male
Recent Work Experience :
04 years of working as a Naturalist/Ranger/Wildlife Guide in the wilderness of India and Nepal where I'd be guiding International guests to look for Tigers, Rhinos, Crocs, Bears, Birds and the like ; at times on foot. It was a dream job, which I did out of love for it.
Also have volunteer experience as a result of the above job in relation to community work and spreading awareness about wildlife to local tribal communities around these rural areas.
The work experience is rather a left-of-centre, but what I'd really like to know if that holds me in decent stead with a good school, or that it's a handicap considering its unconventional nature.
Work experience prior to the jungle-book lifestyle :
Sales in Marketing at 5 star hotel brands for about 3 years.
Have been looking for accurate information online, but I feel that posting it on here would be helpful as well with the insights available.
Goals : To get into a school known for Marketing/Operations or Sustainable Businesses. Clear absence of financial background hence can't aim for finance.
Happy to share more, thanks so much!
