Quick question, guys. Since Wharton asks for two recommendations (preferably supervisors) which combination would be better:

1. Current Supervisor from Current Employer
2. Current Director (supported me through entrepreneurial and leadership stuff at current employer) above my Supervisor.

or
1. Current Director (supported me through entrepreneurial and leadership stuff at current employer) above my Supervisor.
2. Former non profit Executive Director (and former direct supervisor) who saw me establish a new branch for the non-profit and really add value to small businesses for the last 3 years.


Thanks in advance!

Hi MBA Girl,

I am little curious... did you find which of the two is better option? I am on the same page and trying to decide... what approach to take.

I am still hesitant. The advice I got was to pick the two supervisors from my current employer because they were recent. But for another app the Non Profit recommender did write a great recommendation - better written than the other two, but still underlining the fact I was still in college when I worked there. So I am still hesitant.

Wharton doesn't seem to be in any kind of rush or maybe this thread is visited only by folks who are borderline qualified for Wharton. I hope the latter is not true. Anyways, any HCM candidate receive any invite yet?

email came at 4:16pm PDT. Not sure when my status got changed because I finally got sick of refreshing it compulsively.

trying to decide whether to interview on or off campus. do you guys have any thoughts on that?

also in case some of you are wondering, i am an HCM applicant.
