Hi shikarikutta,
I'm going to give you some of my general thoughts here below. This is my perspective from being on the admissions side at schools for 15 yrs:

To be very honest- this puts you in the toughest category right now. You don't say if you were first class or not? If you are that helps, if not, you need a story about why that is the case.
Work experience
1) Manager_ operations (Reliance Industries Limited, India) (2012- june 2015) I like this- second most profitable company in India, ranked 114 on Fortune Global 500 list- at least from wiki and an admissions person can quickly see that and know that you've got experience with a global company
Responsibilities[color=#00ffff]Nothing in this sets you apart or is a hook- but HOW you tell this story can be part of a compelling narrative so there is definitely a lot you can leverage here. Like the 3 years. Were you promoted? Tell that story. Ahead of peers? give specifics.[/color]

Target Schools_ US (Darden, Fuqua, Michigan, Kenan-Flagler, McCombs ), non-US (HEC, Insead, Judge, NUS singapore, ISB) I have some extensive experience with Kenan-Flagler and I can say that your current profile with US schools you mention make your situation challenging- but not impossible. What you have to realize is that this process is not a formula - Are there people like you at all the target schools you mention? YES. And why are they there? Because they told a compelling narrative, because they did the research to know which schools were a good fit for them and they projected confidence and interest in the interview process. And they have a narrative that fits with what the school is looking for. So if you were to work with a firm like us, Stratus, what we'd do is be like your sherpa at each step of the process- help you tighten your story, highlight your specific results, and package yourself in a way that is most compelling. If you do that- and this is not easy- but if you can get expert help to break through the crowd that will give you your best chance. You can get a free consult with us to learn more about how we work with clients from our stratusprep website. I can see you are committed to this process and I wish you all the best as you gather information. Starting now is the right time to have the best chance for this upcoming season!
