I am an admission consultant who had himself applied to Emory a few years back and got an admission (joined ISB). So would be able to gauge your chances better once you share the following information with me :
1. Goals ? Short and Long term and why MBA and Why Emory is the right fit for you
2. Nature of your work with the 02 companies ? – Did you have an client handling/ team leading/Business Development experience ? Were you able to impact P&L with your work
3. Career Transition and Growth – Change in Roles and responsibilities
4. Extra Curricular ? Are you involved in any extra curricular activity with a lot of passion – If yes, why are you passionate about it and since when have you been involved with it and how have you been impacted by it
5. Recommendations – Who are your recommenders ? What is their role in the firm and what was the nature of your work relationship with them
6. Your Strengths ? What value add will you bring to the classroom and also as an Alumni
Overall, you need to create a very personalised application (through your essays, recommendations and resume), which will sell your brand in front of the admission committee
