Hi Jon,

Terima kasih!
Thanks a lot for your feedback. Let me paint a clearer picture regarding my work experience:

1. I worked in French multinational company, one of the market leader in Industrial Automation. At first I joined as Management trainee right after I graduated, then I join the sales force as a sales engineer for 4 years. I handled all products of my company and always achieved my target, and I was the only one in my team to handle global account (another multinational company as my customer), hence I coordinated a lot with my colleague in another country.
2. Now I am working in Japanese multinational conglomerate company in Manufacture business. I joined as business development executive, and 1.5 years later got promoted to Marketing Assistant Manager. I am responsible as a key person handling product and develop sales & marketing strategy for all Indonesia area. I lead a team of sales promoter and sales distributor which report to me directly. My biggest achievement would be creating several new business channel both in west and east Indonesia, effectively increasing 30% of regular sales, which was the main reason I was promoted.

Please elaborate more on "dynamic stories as Indonesian". Which part of my background should I focus on more?

For other school I am considering Nanyang MBA in Singapore. However if I still aim for INSEAD, will GMAT score 710 will be sufficient for my profile?
Thanks a lot!

Hey dude,
Great to hear from you again.
What I mean is that there are very very few Indonesian candidates applying, and if you apply with great stories and a great GMAT (yes, a 710 is enough for INSEAD if the rest is good), you will likely be an attractive candidate. But push your diversity, your pan-asian experience, your quick promotions.

Focus as always most on the leadership, the business impact and the global aspects of your profile.

And if you need any more help, please us know!
Best,

Jon
