Dear Admissionado team,
Would you please review my profile below?
Nationality: Uruguay
Sex: Male
Age: 31
Languages: Spanish (Native), English (Fluent), Portuguese (Beginner)
Education: Bachelor in Economics. Universidad de Montevideo, Uruguay.
GPA: 8.4/12
Worked long hours during 25% of my undergraduate time but overall low GPA partially explained by lack of focus/interest in the subject.
GMAT: Scheduled for late August, targeting 690.
Working experience:
1 Year in Private Equity as an entry-level analyst. (Uruguay)
5 years as an Equity Analyst in a Global Equity Hedge Fund, starting junior level and moving up to senior analyst. Ended up managing 20% of the fund portfolio (size $150m) (Uruguay)
2 years as Investment Analyst in Project Finance/Private Credit in a mid-sized public fund. (United Kingdom)
International exposure:
Did an exchange semester in UNC, North Carolina as an undergrad (GPA 3.25);
Invested mostly in European and Japanese companies during my time at the Hedge Fund. Long Research trips to Japan, Greece and Australia.
Moved to the UK in September 2017 in search of better career opportunities (without sponsorship or pre-agreed job contract). Current role involves investments in the UK, Ireland and Germany.
Others:
Launched a financial advisory business in Uruguay but left the company to the other partners when moved to the UK.
Tried an e-commerce startup for toys in Uruguay. Could not secure funding.
CFA Charterholder
Post-MBA goals:
Management consulting is the first option and the second would be corporate development.
Main motivation is to change industry from a pure finance analyst role into consulting roles with exposure to hard asset sectors such as Energy / Oil and Gas / Industrials. Long term goal is to work in a senior managing role in a multinational company with business in Latam.
Target Schools:
LBS, Oxford, Cambridge, Imperial.
I really appreciate your help.
