Why do you reckon my chances might be better at ISB? Asking because most candidates I speak to tend to put ISB higher on their list than ex. MBA at ABC these days, wanted to understand if any of the profile pointers work better at ISB?
BTW Thanks for suggestions!
1. ISB takes 900 students per year while ABC total is 375 approx.
2. ISB prefers young applicants (most less than 8yrs work-ex). 5yrs work-ex gives you slight edge over the 2-3yrs work-ex ones.
3. Most jobs are in Consulting side. TCS is fine for Consulting in tech-oriented domains.
4. 5-8yrs Male is most competitive group at ABC, but they actually prefer slightly higher work-ex. Add to it the diversity they seek in education, industry, role, gender, etc.
IIM Lucknow & Indore too are good options. IIML esp is good for IT background candidates with 5-10yrs work-ex as they get plenty of Consulting & Product Management oriented roles. If you get an offer from there, you should take it.
