Hi Jennifer, Linda,
I would be very grateful if you could evaluate my profile for the target schools and answer the unique query I have mentioned in the end...
Female/30/ Indian
GMAT - 710Workex:6 years in Insurance (same company) - cross functional (have worked in almost all departments)
Best performer in the company - I alone generate 10% of the company's topline. Have received awards in consecutive quarters for the performance
Led a sales team of 200 people for retail sales at one point. Now lead a team of 40 for Corporate sales
Steady professional growth. 3 promotions in 6 years (4th on the way.. but likely only after admissions decisions)
Academics:Undergrad - 3.2/4.0 (Computer Science from OK-ish place)
Grad - 3.1/4.0 (Post Graduate Diploma in Business Management from India's top 5 B-school)
Extra-Currics:Participated in debating etc. in school but not much to show in terms of achievement
EXTREMELY Passionate about dancing... but again not much to show as achievement
Post-MBA Goal:Having worked in sales have always been interested about what drives sales people. Would like to work with a Consult for few years and then open my own Performance Management and Organizational Development consultancy.
Target programs:1 year MBA: Kellogg, Emory, Cornell
2 Year MBA: HBS, Sloan, Yale, Columbia
Would be grateful if you could provide a school by school assessment
Now.... The Unique QuestionHubby has been admitted to HBS and will start the program in August. Ideally I would like to join him in US immediately. Assuming that I submit all my applications (Round 1) prior to resigning from my role, will the fact that I have quit my job reflect negatively in the interviews, come December?
Eagerly awaiting your response. Am in a major quandry
Anu
