Curiuos to see what you all think!
Background and nationality: White/USA
Undergrad Information: Ross/Kelley/McCombs degree in Accounting-- 3.0
GMAT: 770 (49Q/45V/6 IR)
Work experience and leadership: 4 years-- 3 years in F250 corp rotational program with broad experience (accounting/finance/operations; 3 different locations (HQ; acquired factory; East Asia) plus current roll-off roll (roadmap factory). No leadership or "upward trajectory" due to nature of program, but highlighted leadership in these roles of leading teams, initiating projects that were rolled out company wide. Also highlighted that the relocation is not part of the standard rotation program and I was awarded this as the top performer in my rotation class...only domestic assignment in 2nd role and one of 3 international placements in 3rd role.
Community and others" Light, but explained due to nature of constantly relocating and having to get settled in a new place and a new job. I do have some involvement in churches (playing on worship team, helping lead youth, social team for young adults) in the different locations to show that I'm still involved, but just due to the nature of such short chapters there's nothing clearly sustained and world-changing.
Post MBA goals: Management consulting. My story is I want to be a F500 CEO, and I've had a whirlwind of learning experiences the past 4 years and don't want to slow down. MBA serves as an intense 2-year academic learning opportunity that helps me transition to management consulting, where the fast pace and exposure to high level, strategic business problems will help further prepare me to be successful the rest of my career and achieve that goal.
Explained in optional essay that GPA was low because I wasn't as focused on academics as I needed to be (was focused on other things that challenged me more, tied it in with my passion which is learning), but that I've learned about balance and priorities since then.
