Hi there, it would be great if I could get some comments on the suitability of my profile for admission to my target schools.
· Demographics: Female, Indian, 26
· Education: BSc. Economics, Singapore Management University, GPA 3.4 (Cum Laude)
· Other coursework or post-undergraduate education: Study Abroad Semester at Vienna University of Economics & Business
· GMAT: Total 720 (QR 50, VR 37, IR 6)
· Work experience:
I've had 2 internships in university, one with an insurance firm and another with an emerging markets consulting firm, both in Singapore.
I'll be completing 4 years of full-time work in Aug 2021. Been working with a leading Shipping and Logistics Solutions MNC in Singapore. Started as a graduate trainee for 1 yr, placed as a digital business analyst – COO office for 2 yrs, and then promoted to organisation excellence manager for Asia Pacific. In these roles, I've worked on high-impact digital transformation projects in close collaboration with the CEO, COO, product managers and ops teams across Southeast Asia, China and Australia.
My role involves project management, data analytics, vendor management and operational process alignment. Some key achievements are launching an online booking/quote customer platform in 10 Asia markets, and delivering bottom-line savings in high-cost countries through ops automation and restructuring.
· Extracurricular activities:
In university, I held several positions in executive committees as a sponsorship lead/ events director. Served over 1000 students as part of the Student Council and also led several events to integrate and showcase the international student community. In addition, I volunteered with Singapore’s Down Syndrome Association on an ongoing basis to coach kids and adults on occupational and life skills.
Presently, I am volunteering my time with a Singaporean female-led tech community as a tech associate, where I curate learning/mentorship programs for a community of self-learners who wish to upskill in Data Visualization/ Analytics. I design a curriculum suite for individual learners as well as public and private partners. The goal of this community is to advance diversity and inclusion of women in various tech roles.
· Post-MBA goals:
Strategy/ project management roles in tech companies
· Target schools:
Columbia, MIT Sloan, Kellogg, UCB Haas, Booth, Tuck, INSEAD
I'll be applying in R1 for 2022 intake.

Hello studybuddy26,
Thank you for sharing. It is good to see that you have noted results and key achievements from your current role. This will be useful when developing your MBA resume. Keep in mind that as you select professional strengths to share, you will want to prioritize those that are relevant to many industries, for example, analytical skills, strategic thinking abilities, or research experience. Sharing these transferrable skills helps to convince the reader that you can excel in business school and beyond!
Your GMAT score is solid and your extracurriculars look good as well. Successful applications share a consistent story, so it is great that you are volunteering with a tech company and want to go into a strategy/ PM role at a tech company post-MBA.
Since you are applying in Round 1, now is the time to customize your MBA resume, fine-tune your career goals, begin to brainstorm essay topics, and identify potential recommenders.
You have a good selection of target schools and now it will come down to figuring out how to best differentiate yourself in the applicant pool. If you are looking for support as you begin the application process, do not hesitate to reach out to [email protected] to learn how we can help position you for success.
Personal MBA Coach works with applicants from around the world, and many Indian applicants. We would love to further discuss your profile and ways to enhance your candidacy!
Regards,
Personal MBA Coach

Hi studybuddy26
Thanks for A2A. Firstly, your career arc looks impressive. You have an impeccable track record from the begging of your career, working internationally and growing to handle important roles in a small period of time is not everyone's cup of tea. International experience will play a major role in ivy league schools, in your case, it will surely an advantage to stand out of the competitive cohort.
Target schools look good on top of the profile, but be sure to check their placement stats before applying for the program.
