My experience with Harold was exceptional. Stepping into MBA applications is DAUNTING, anyone will tell you it is INTIMIDATING, STRESSFUL, and DIFFICULT. Harold made it EASY, APPROACHABLE, and STRESS FREE. Harold knows the MBA admissions game. Having Harold as my partner in this made me feel like I was set out for success in the process from meeting 1 through the last. He provided thoughtful engagement with the material that I provided him, getting materials submitted back to me within 24 hours. Where Harold stands out to me from any other advisor, I have ever worked with is that he made me feel like I was his only client even though he has MANY. I am convinced that Harold never stops working for his clients. During my time with Harold, I spoke with him DAILY, often bouncing essay drafts back and forth at least 2 times a day. My MBA journey was important to me, and it felt like it was even MORE important to Harold. As I worked full time for a large bank, Harold would hop on facetimes with me at 6:00 am 3-4 times a week, and for the days I had to be at work early, he would hop on facetimes with me at 11:00 pm just so we could get my essays perfect. Closer to deadlines Harold made sure he was available sometimes meeting with me 2 days in a row just to make sure everything was set. I remember submitting my very first application, Harold stayed on the phone with me at 11:30 pm just to make sure I didn’t miss anything and was comfortable with the process. When I was ready to interview at my target program Georgetown University, Harold prepared me with questions two weeks in advance going over what to say, how long to say it, and much more. The night before I interviewed, Harold set up a facetime just to go over the interview prep one last time, and the day of he called me to check in to see how I was feeling and to give me a pep talk beforehand. Harold was a genuine partner through this whole process, and I highly regard and recommend him. This fall I will attend Georgetown University for my MBA and I 100% could not have done it without Harold. 5 stars is not enough!
