Hi,
There are a bit of flaws in your profile. First, with a company like HCL it is not possible to have promotion in a span of 1.5 yrs. The same rule applies to Fidelity Investments as they follow the same rule.Secondly, Module Lead is nor a promotions it is actually a role.Promotions are like Senior Software Engg., Project Lead etc.
In your profile you have mentioned that you were advisor to your family business, so the first thing adcom will ask why didn't you joined your family business?
In case you have an interview with an Indian alumni, he will directly point to your all these flaws.My advice will be to look into your profile once again?
Regards

hi
thanks a lot for a prompt feedback!
Yeah, Surely lotsa things need to be plugged...
In HCL, first promotion happens after a year if you are good...else does take around 1.5 years!
Fidelity is flexible & performance oriented company.If someone is good, & has been working for 1.5 years, nothing unusual about the promotion!
Family business..I wanted greater exposure by working for MNC's and I am not keen on operations side of industrial catering (family business) as a career.
I always wanted to work to create a strong brand,..Its not that bigger company which requires a 24*7 brand manager!
Plus working with other cos. has given me rich exposure, better people networking and ampler opportunities ...so now if I decide to join back my business post-MBA, I am well equipped to take it to a higher level...!
Yes I am not sure if I would want to put up this with adcom.I spoke to a few reps from Univ and they said it might give negative impression, in case I dont weave a strong story around this..!
Thanks for your reviews...I cant' explain how much it has helped me...
