I was a Key Account Manager at Zomato, where I work with 80+ restaurant partners to grow their business through smart pricing, menu, and campaign strategies. Before this, I explored roles in business development, HR, and event management, which gave me a mix of experience in operations, stakeholder management, and marketing campaigns.
Post-MBA, I want to work in marketing, product management, or operations at a growth-focused company, where I can use my data-driven approach and problem-solving skills to scale products and improve customer experience.
In the long run, I see myself leading growth or product strategy at a global level, driving business impact and building innovative solutions.
I’m open to opportunities in India and globally, especially in dynamic markets like Bangalore, Singapore, and Dubai.
Hi @sanskritisamdhian,
With a GMAT of mid 600s (655+) for your GPA of 7.3, showing your academic caliber becomes easier. Something like a 665+ would certainly be a big help for schools like ISB & NUS
Equally important is how compelling your story is, how well you are able to convince the AdCom in your answers to the Why and why now of an MBA. Top MBA programs do want their students, esp the ones with WE lower than 3 years to have very good clarity here, AND be able to contribute in their classes with their workplace expereinces.
Hope that helps. Please submit your profile for a Free Assessment over a 1:1 call. https://theivyleagueedge.com/index.php/contactus/
