Hi team MBAMisson,
Would like a profile evaluation. I’m considering Oxford Said and Cambridge Judge for my MBA. Thanks in advance!
Male, 26
Bachelors in Business from top ranked University in Pakistan, 3.5 GPA (top 10 percentile of class, As and Bs in quant courses)
GMAT: 730 (Q45, V46)
5 years of work experience in core brand management of consumer goods, first at a local blue chip market leader and- for the past 1.5 years- at a multinational. Responsible for brands with turnover > $250 mn and stewarded marketing budgets in excess of $5mn. (Note: Brand teams are very lean so I do not have direct subordinates, but I have been entrusted with interns and trainees)
Extra curriculars: Debate and Model UN, during high school as a participant and later as a coach. Gained a lot of international exposure and leadership experience through attending and taking high school teams to conferences/tournaments all over the world.
Post MBA Goals: Transition into consultancy since it absorbs my marketing skills such as project management and story telling whilst keeping me industrially fluid. I plan to work with diverse clients in emerging markets for 4-5 years before returning to Pakistan to consult for the multiple conglomerates jockeying for a slice of the booming retail market.
Community and others
Founded a non-profit aimed at spreading critical thinking across Pakistan through debate and public speaking. Now in its sixth year, the organization currently trains students, manages tournaments and organises lectures around the year.
