I want a small piece of advice pertaining to MBA admissions.
I graduated in Electronics Engineering but was disinclined to work in IT sector. I however worked in an IT MNC firm CSC for a year and abruptly left the job looking for clarity in career. I devoted next 2 years in preparing for competitive examinations for a Government job while managing to do some boring inconsequential work in a small private firm.
After securing a job in Government of India, wherein, 7000 people get selected out of 7-8 lakhs applicants and where I worked for around an year, I went on to crack a respectable job with the Parliament of India (only 8 people got selected in an all-India examination). Since then, I have been working as an Officer here for more than two years now.
My work in Parliament has been quite challenging as well as satisfying. Itis a mix of administrative and academic as I prepare Parliamentary Committee reports on several Subjects
along with taking care of routine administrative tasks. I have been an excellent performer here and can get an excellent recommendation from both my immediate boss as well as Divisional Head. I can manage a good recommendation from a Member of Parliament as well.
Apart from this I have been associated with lots of extra curricular activities and NGO work (Art of Living) for quite some time though mostly during my college and early professional career.
Now I aim to transition to Consultancy Sector after doing an MBA though I'm confused whether my work ex would be helpful in that or not.
Assuming an average academic record in my graduation, 720-740 GMAT score and some very good recommendations what are the chances of my application getting rejected or accepted by Top 25 US Universities solely on the basis of my work-ex.
I understand that no factor is exclusively dominant for an admit, however, I am in a dilemma if my work-ex in Government Sector will be a hindrance for me to get an admit. Please guide me.
