I am a commerce student with 98% in Class 12. I became a Chartered Accountant in 2021.


Work Experience
I have been with Deloitte and EY for over four years. I am part of the Tax Advisory and consulting team, which provides consulting services across industries, focusing on strategy, risk, and tax related solutions. I have received one promotion and won awards for my performance in client-facing projects. My role involves regular interaction with Domestic and international clients, giving me valuable. Also, i have assisted in AI related initiatives of the company and also I have mentored freshers and led projects.

Post-MBA Goals
My goal is to continue in the consulting industry at top firms such as MBB (McKinsey, BCG, and Bain), which offer short-term projects across diverse sectors—unlike Big 4 and boutique consulting firms. I also aim to focus on management consulting full-time, which is not currently possible in my role.

An MBA will enable me to pivot to management consulting, explore fresh perspectives outside the Big 4 ecosystem, and gain multisectoral insights. This experience will prepare me to transition into top impact consulting firms. My long-term aspiration is to hold a top-level position in an impact consulting firm, where I can contribute to initiatives with direct and meaningful impact.

Hi Sakshi, hope this finds you well. What are your goals? What do you hope to achieve from an MBA? Audit and taxation profiles are not really the most preferred kind of profiles that top B schools look for. So you need to have a targeted goals strategy so the schools can see great value in accepting you. How do you position yourself strategically over other similar candidates?
Highlight experiences and projects where you got more exposure to the internal workings and operations of organisations. Think about why consulting firms would shortlist you. What kind of valuable experience do you bring? Having a CA is an advantage, but where many CAs lag is that they do not think beyond executional tasks in their day-to-day projects. See how you can bring forth your strategic insights that helped your clients in the past. Talk about projects where you have guided leaders and turned around difficult situations. You will do well in the application process if there is depth to your knowledge. I am happy to advise you more should you want to speak.

Best wishes
