I was wondering why theres not much mention about RSM and NUS around these forums. I was keen on getting to know them better. however most threads and most forums just give them a fleeting mention.
also am kinda new to this and have a rather odd WE background, so was wonderin you guys could gimme some advice.
i'll give u a short profile;
Male/Indian
graduated as a Marine Engineer with a degree from an Elite Indian Univ.
excellent acads. recently did a dry-run@Gmat after a 2 week prep and did 630 so no issues
thr will def push it up.
extras are also pretty decent. have been actively into sports in college and was team lead in various paper presentations. was the editor of collg. publication as well.
I always like to emphasise that am trained in a lotta extras like fire-fighting, First-aid and survival techniques......but thats because its part of my job to be trained in all these (they're pretty good actually and fun too)
Now comes the hard part....
My work exp by the time will be around 3.5-4 years by the time i apply.
and, I am serving in the Merchant Marine all this while. My job profile is ..well.. going away on large ocean going ships(tankers) and all engineering jobs on the ship (plus related admin jobs.)
I would say i have excellent "international" exposure because i travel to places....a lotta places.
get to exp a lotta diff cultures.
BUT that being said, is it possible for a career switch into GM/Cosulting? frankly i am well versed in my field an dont mind considering options in Commodities(Oil&gas) and Intl. trade.
But all one gets to hear in all forums is ppl going ga-ga over IB/Consulting and Trading
having a pure-technical WE is also an issue .... but maybe u guys can point out whether thats really a big issue?
Well...thanks
and hope i get some help
cheerios
