Hi there,
Your role seems to have changed remarkably at the publishing firm. Could you help me understand how your responsibilities changed from being an content editor to content engineer? For your applications, you will have to highlight and business impact you have made on the organization, which could include improving the bottom line, bringing efficiency in your projects etc. How you showed your leadership skills in achieving such outcomes would also be equally important. You've had many promotions, which is impressive and hopefully this will help you get good recommendations.
Your ECAs are looking dated. Have you dine anything more recently?
You can take either GMAT or GRE- whatever you can score better in. And do apply to ISB as well as some IIMs as your profile looks quite strong.
Reach out if you need further help.

Some thoughts on your profile evaluation and some tough love too.
- The academic arc is a mixed bag. While the GPA helps, the college pedgiree may not per your judgement. A high score can help here. While there is never a magic number, it helps to be above your target school's average and especially given the pedigree.
- The professional profile seems quite interesting ableit very niche. You'll have to ensure that the work is explained well so that the adcom can appeciate it. The faster-than-norm (?) trajectory helps. Has your firm been a past feeder? The issue with niche profile is that it can sometimes be to show a logical post-MBA plans - what's yours?
- College level ECs looks good and diverse. Anything since you graduated? Will be useful to expand on DRI further - does that mean, for instance, that your name appears as an author for the books your firm may publish?
Hope this sparks the right questions. Feel free to reach out on [email protected] for further discussion.
Cheers,
