MBA recommendation letters are one of the most misunderstood parts of the application process. Many applicants focus on choosing the most senior recommender — when what actually matters is specificity, credibility, and examples of impact.

Hi everyone.
I heard that work experience is essential in applying for MBA.
Do I have any chance of admission if I've been working for a bit more than 1 year as a mechanic in car repair shop?
I really don't like this job, so I now want to switch to Finance. I took a GMAT and scored 680. My GPA is 3.5 from third world country university.

Work experience is not prerequisite of getting admission, but if you have job experience, especially in multinational company or hold a managerial post in a post, definitely it has a profound in your admission on top class universities. It would be hard to get admission on Finance subject, as your educational background and job experience does not match to your intended program. I am not expert on MBA admission (especially Finance major), just I have thrown my opinions based on my knowledge.
If you like my post, do not leave without giving +1 kudos. On the other hand, you can discard my comments, if you dislike it.
Best of luck in years to come.

You have a good score and GPA. When B-School wants to select a particular profile they will evaluate your leadership qualities. I am not sure how can you present your current job experience with a leadership role. There are few B schools which offer admission without Job experience as well. With your GMAT score maybe you can try MS Finance. If you have any specific schools in your mind, send them your profile and request for evaluation.
Hope for the best
