Hi there,
Thanks for your post.
Overall I would say, based on the info here, that your strengths are:
-working for reputable company like Accenture
-710 GMAT
-sounds like solid academics
-variety of extracurriculars, including continuing now at Accenture
-some volunteering experience
-yes CFA is a small plus if you complete
Potential weaknesses or challenges:
-Fewer than average years of work experience, but since you plan to work another year before even applying that will be mostly rectified
-currently goals could be further developed (i.e. be sure to dig deeper when putting your essays together/prepping for your interviews)
-still somewhat from a large applicant pool—Indian IT applicants; be sure to showcase skills such as leadership, teamwork, communication skills, working with others, etc to show more dimension to your profile
-small potential questions could be raised about changing positions twice within a couple of years if you plan to change again soon…. Doesn’t mean that can’t be overcome with a good explanation, but be prepared
Unknowns:
-essays/recommendations/interviews
It’s good that you are thinking ahead, so be sure to start prepping for your essays in spring/summer of 2014, just taking some time to brainstorm occasionally when you get a chance for a few months, and save plenty of time to complete multiple drafts and edit and proofread etc. Let us know what other q’s you have, and good luck!
