Hi,
I am planning to apply for various programs in the Fall 2014 intake, would be obliged if you evaluate my profile and help me decide the colleges suitable for my profile.
Demographics: Indian / Male / Age 26
Academics: Bachelors in Electronics and communication Engineering, 2009. 68%. Delhi University: Netaji Subhas Institute of Technology(NSIT), India.
GMAT: 740 (Q50, V40) - Yet to get the official score
Work Experience: 5 years at the time i will join a b school
Working as an Assistant Manager in a Business Research Firm
Manage team that conducts primary and secondary research and analyses information using Porter's 5 forces model, PESTLE analysis and other framework to conduct market analysis
Have international working experience
Currently as a part of Category Team with a target of certain % savings on a billion dollar annual spend
Have been part of interview panel for recruitment
Have mentored and trained several new-joiners to shape up their respective careers
Supported in Business Development through new product creation
Post MBA Goal
To enter into strategic planning for a procurement of indirect materials
Basically climb up the ladder in category management
However, I am open to suggestions for a better post-MBA goal
Colleges under consideration
1. Broad
2. Tepper
3. Kelley
4. Smeal
5. Ross
6. Fuqua
I am confused with two aspects
1. Is my list of target colleges fine? or I am missing out on some good schools? I do need guidance on school selection.
2. Would supply chain or procurement would be a better suitable career option based on my current profile and MBA education?
Also, I am largely skeptical about selection of Ross as I would be needing a non-consignor loan, which I have heard Ross doesnt provide with.
