GRE - 316 (V- 153, Q- 163), Planning to take it again, will be applying in R1 to all.
Work Ex - Working with an IT Service based company (L&T Infotech) in release management domain for a top US banking client for over a year now, will have about 16 months of work ex at the time of applying.
Leadership Experiences -
A number of experiences here -
1) Editorial Head for a year in college, led a team of 8 members. Was also on the Editorial board of several other college level organizations.
2) Team Lead at AIESEC, Worked in Sales, Marketing. Led a team of 10.
3) Have been involved with various NGO's from School till end of college as volunteer and part of HR Committee (NSS,

3. Android Trainee at a small IT company (MNC)
Experiences -
Worked as a freelance content writer for some time, eventually outsourced the work as I made some regular and well paying clients while taking care of editing. Short-lived since the website we used for bids (think iwriter etc) eventually went bankrupt and closed shop.
Working part time with a local fashion brand (digital marketing) (super small, just starting out)
International Experience - Don't know if it counts but visited 9 countries in Europe as a part of a trip in high school.
Post Masters Goal - Want to work in a Product Marketing in a Tech Firm.

Two Top European Bschool Admits with Scholarship!
I came to GyanOne with a basic idea of what my future aspirations were and their profound knowledge about business schools helped me align the right school with my goals, by understanding my motivations and experiences.
Right from the very beginning, GyanOne’s organised and focused methodology, along with personalised attention not only enabled me to optimally prepare for the admission process, but also helped me remain confident throughout this sometimes-turbulent process.
With a GMAT score of 700 and just a few days left before the R2 deadline, they helped me develop experience-based answers, which vividly highlighted my learnings from each experience. Through brainstorming, attentive listening, patience and hardwork, the team helped me find what made me unique and competitive in a large pool of applicants. In addition, the limitless edits made the essays and the resume engaging enough to stand out during the application process and made sure that every element of the application is perfect. By the end of the process, I already was confident of my candidature for the program.
Once interview calls came rolling in, their multi-pronged and gruelling mock interview sessions prepared me for every possible interview scenario and taught me how to intelligently tackle every question, be it behavioural, general or a case study question.
GyanOne prepared me for the worst that one could expect in an interview, that the actual interview seemed like a cake walk to me. I truly believe it gave me a strong competitive advantage and helped me present a polished image of myself in front of the admissions panel, ultimately getting me an admit from two of the top European Business Schools with scholarship.
Professional and personalised understanding were some of the immediately visible traits that I notice about the services offered by Gyanone. Moreover, I am extremely thankful for their guidance, they not only guided me through the intricacies of the process but also instilled in me the confidence that nothing is impossible if one is whole-heartedly determined to work for it.
