1) Basic demographic info: 27M Indian
2) Educational Background:
BTech, Mechanical Undergrad with CGPA of 8.3 from one of the top 10 colleges in India
GMAT of 730
Headed the subsystem of Suspension as a part of the college All Terrain Racing team, PSI Racing, which eventually won in the national competition
3) Work experience:
Overall experience of 7 years:
3 years with one of India's largest conglomerate where I built its first and one of India's largest Notebook manufacturing facility.
1 year with an agritech startup where I headed Digital Sales and Operations for the company
3 years with a HR tech startup (with 2 promotions) where I currently work as Director of Product & Business Operations
4) Extracurriculars: Playing cricket and badminton where I captained the team to 3 championships in the intra division competition
5) Short/Long term goals: Would be working more on Product Management, with especially complicated products, on B2B rather than B2C
6) Schools: I am targeting MIT Sloan, Berkeley, Stanford and Booth in the first round.
7) Uniqueness:
a) Single handedly built a USD 7 million worth Notebook factory in which I helped save USD 295,000 in CAPEX cost and USD 120,000 in yearly OPEX cost. The factory was able to achieve its 100% capacity two years ahead of plan.
b) Ideated and initiated a Digital Sales team to acquire paid rural users. The company later pivoted to this model when COVID hit, survived the pandemic and later secured funding for Series A.
c) Launched more than 3 products to help worker onboarding and backend operations that saw the company grow 3X without any increase in the manpower count.
8) Recommendations: The recommendations will be given by the CEOs to whom I am/was reporting

Hi, YashwantPM,
Thank you for sharing a detailed profile.
First of all, I must say that such a robust profile is quite rare, so Kudos on that! Now, coming to the statistics, your GMAT score seems great and should strengthen your overall application. Additionally, a bit more about your comprehensive statistics and information about any additional courses, certifications, and academic accolades, could do wonders for your profile.
About your work experience, seven years of work experience is great, and I’m sure you won’t lack any stellar leadership examples. Undoubtedly, your experience is your biggest asset. From working in conglomerates and building one of India’s largest Notebook manufacturing units to being Director of Product & Business Operations at a startup, it is an accomplishment in itself! Moreover, I can see you have very well quantized your critical projects! The biggest edge will be presenting these activities strategically and ensuring they don’t go unnoticed by the adcoms by linking them to your post-MBA goals and other elements of your B-school essays!
Coming to the extracurriculars, top B-schools looks for diversity in a candidate; considering the extracurriculars, being involved in sports and college events seems a bit generic and is mostly at the college level. Therefore, I suggest adding some relevant community & voluntary NGO work and trying to present these activities strategically, which should definitely do better for your portfolio on paper. Hence, it would help if you elaborated on your ECAs; that should help start an interesting conversation between you and AdComs. Furthermore, I suggest you go through our article on Significance of ECAs for MBA Application, to understand the importance of drafting exemplary ECAs essays! Moreover, you do have a relevant well-defined post-MBA goal. Hence, you are all set on that front! All you need to do is align your goals with the schools you are targeting and also justify how these schools will help you achieve them.
Overall your profile looks amazing on the surface, and you have a good chance at top business schools. Darden, NYU, Haas, and MIT can be good choices for product management. Your strongest point is your work experience; however, a little bit of work is required on your ECAs and aligning them to B-school essays. Hence, If you’d like, we are happy to get on a call with you sometime this week to discuss your profile in length and further chances to the schools. So feel free to book a free session with us at your convenience.
