Dear Consultants,
I would be very grateful if you could evaluate my profile for IIM A's Executive MBA Program.
Total Work Ex: As on March 2025 is 57 months. I know the calculation will be based on March 31st for the year of admission. Since, I am targeting 2026, that would make it 69 months.
57 Months -
45 Months, Technology Consulting with EY India, as a SAP Finance Consultant. (July 2021-Present)
I help organizations plan their digital strategy and digital transformation journey by providing them with leading ERP Technology. i.e SAP.
In doing this, my work involves meeting with senior stakeholders and business leaders (CFOs, CEOs, CIOs & CXOs).
I understand their current business processes and help them plan their journey to SAP, which in turn would improve their financial reporting and financial closing timelines.
More specifically, I plan the entire financial & organizational landscape of my clients in SAP according to their requirements and then configure it for them. This leads to them moving all their to daily activities to a single system, which ensures a single source of truth which is centrally accessible to all parties within the organization.
Having done this for the last 4 years, I have had the opportunity to work in the following industries:
1. Utilities & Infra
2. Sports
3. Retail Distribution (Petrol)
4. Transportation
5. Manufacturing (Steel)
My clients are leading organizations based in India, UAE, Netherlands, Canada, Singapore, Thailand & the UK.
I have been on client site for most of the time, which has helped me gain better understanding of their business.
While most of my work involves Technology Consulting, I need an MBA to take up senior leadership roles within my organization.
I am also open to industry change, provided I see a clear path for myself in another industry.
12 Months, Junior Mechanical Engineer, Voltas Limited, UAE: (Oct 2019-Oct 2020)
First job from college. I worked with a leading contractor in Dubai where we provided Mechanical, Electrical & Plumbing solutions to our clients.
My job was to go through the client documents and understand the project requirements & send for material quotations according to the specifications mentioned in the Bill of Materials.
In doing this, I could help save client costs, by bringing them multiple quotations on similar products from different brands.
GMAT Classic Score: 700 (Q49/V35) I am preparing for a retake.
College (Undergrad): KIIT University (2015-2019) - CGPA 7.96
Extra Curr: AIESEC, Created my own AIR Conditioner which had zero impact on the environment-We won a grant of INR 75000 for it.
EY: Helped under privileged children in understanding the world beyond studies, by getting to know their aspirations in life.
Class 12th Science: 79%
Class 10th: 85%

Your profile is good. Just the UG score is a little less but fret not. Write the application well.
BTW the Chairperson of IIMA PGPX himself doesn't like it when ppl call pgpx as an executive mba.
He urges ppl to research all the programs. Iima has a separate executive mba.
Pgpx he refers as the 1 year mba, which is globally recognized.
The Chairperson sometimes himself takes interviews, so if you by mistake call it as executive mba in front of him, he will grill you badly. Will hamper your chances of selection.
Coming from an incoming iima mba pgpx student.
