Hi,
Thanks in advance for the profile review.
Age: 30, Indian Male
GMAT: 700
School: USC, GPA: 3.3, Major: Finance
Grad School: MSF@ WUSTL Olin, GPA: 3.6
Work Experience:
8 months of Internal Strategy Consulting at an Insurance giant in Chicago
3.5 yrs (Analyst to Principal) at a hybrid operational accelerator/Venture Capital firm at Hong Kong focussed on media companies.
4 deals concluded during my time. Total capital invested USD20M
3 operational secondments from the firm within portfolio companies at Venture Business Builder roles for 3-4 months each. In these roles, a lot business development and operational responsibilities and also strategic business building side to it.
1.5 yrs as Business Development Director (#2 in APAC) for a Silicon Valley Series C funded tech firm. Directly reporting to the MD APAC, who in turn reported to COO of the firm. I was in charge of building out the business in APAC. Successfully executed strategy and generated USD4.5M revenue in the first year of ops. Managed a team of 10 people which includes sales, operations and tech personnel.
No extracurriculars after college tbh.
Strictly looking for a 1yr MBA program. Cannot afford 2 yr MBA at this point.
Schools interested: INSEAD, Cambridge, Oxford, Kellogg, Cornell, IE business school (1yr options in the American schools)
Goals post-MBA: 1) Start-up tech gig within a larger organization like Uber, Airbnb etc doing corporate development/strategy
2) Venture fund looking at digital/media investments
3) Corporate Development/Strategy roles media companies
Would like to know chances, if possible. Appreciate your help.

Hi - thanks for writing! You have some strong and progressive work experience and solid academics. I think the international programs you listed are within range for you. I think Kellogg may be more of a reach though, given that you're coming from a competitive demographic and don't have significant extracurricular involvement (the fact that there are few top 1-year programs in the US makes this program all the more competitive).
Hope that helps!
Let me know of any other questions.
