Hi Everyone,
I am finishing a year of work experience as a civilian engineer (not a soldier!) with the US Air Force as part of a scholarship for service program with the DoD. My service commitment ends next year, and I want to move into start consulting at a top firm before joining an MBA program. I finished my BS/MS in Aerospace Engineering before joining the USAF, and had a UGPA: 3.53 and GGPA: 3.90.
Basically I am worried that I won't get an interview because
a) I have been out of school for a year
b) UGPA is not the best
c) My work experience has been contract management for engineering services/ reliability analyst/ technical engineering analysis
My plan is to take the GMAT in August and put that in my resume to display my aptitude. I want to get opinions from this forum on whether I stand a chance or not of getting an interview in the fall, and any suggestions to improve my story. I plan on starting to contact recruiters at the end of this month.
Thanks for your help!
