I graduated from Shri Ram College of Commerce (SRCC). I am a CPA, have cleared CFA Level I, and am currently progressing through the CFA program.

I began my career at Acuity Knowledge Partners, supporting global investment banking teams across sector research, market and competitive benchmarking, and transaction-oriented analysis.
Most recently, I worked with Goldman Sachs in the IBD TMT group, where I supported M&A advisory and private-markets deal execution across multiple live technology mandates. My experience includes preparing CIMs, teasers, and pitch materials; conducting buyer and investor screenings; supporting valuation and strategic analyses; and managing key diligence workstreams across end-to-end sell-side processes.

I could see you looking like a good candidate for INSEAD R2. I like that you are progressing with your CFA. What are your post MBA goals? We could discuss your profile more fully if you sign up for a free consultation-- which you can do here: https://www.stratusadmissionscounseling ... sultation/

Hi
Priyanka here from ARINGO. Speaking about your profile, you have a strong foundation for INSEAD. Your experience supporting live deals, valuations, and investor processes shows maturity beyond a purely research role, which AdComs at INSEAD value. That said, the school will also look beyond technical finance strength, they will want to see leadership, international exposure, collaboration, and a clear post-MBA narrative that explains why now and why INSEAD specifically for your pivot into diversified financial services. Right now, your profile reads as technically impressive, but the differentiator will be your story, impact, and people leadership.

To give you a sharper evaluation, it would help to know more about your leadership experiences, extracurricular and community involvement, international exposure, measurable impact at work, and your long-term career vision. Also, which INSEAD round are you planning to target?

I’d be happy to offer you a free profile review for your target programs to see where you stand and how to boost your chances, happy to help!
No pressure, no strings - just helpful insights on where you stand and how you can strengthen your chances.
