Consultant Jessica Shklar
Summary:
Deciding to work with Jessica was the single best decision I made as part of the MBA application process. If you're reading this review, I highly encourage you to reach out to Jessica to see for yourself. Having spoken with many MBAs who worked with other consultants, I can say with confidence that Jessica is in a league of her own.
Why Jessica stands out:
1. Unparalleled ability to 'see the forest for the trees' -- Jessica's super power is her knack for helping her clients realize what makes their application unique. EVERY applicant has a story - Jessica is invaluable when it comes to teasing out & tailoring an applicant's story for particular programs or application/essay prompts. I cannot stress the importance of this talent enough: every consultant will help you project manage the application process, but Jessica will help you create the best possible output. She asks idea-generating, prodding questions, looks across your applications to identify content that should be included in all, and has a knack for finding the details that really help applicants stand out (details I would have NEVER identified myself). Seriously, I cant say enough about Jessica's capabilities on this front. She is unbelievably talented.
2. Operational excellence - Jessica keeps you on track. I applied to five schools, and Jessica ensured I never missed a beat or fell behind. Moreover, Jessica NEVER missed a deadline. She often offered meaningful suggestions for my essays or applications well ahead of her agreed turnaround time. The regular engagement with Jessica made the application completion process fun and motivating! It was really helpful to brainstorm with Jessica asynchronously (given i was working full time) and i ultimately feel some of the best ideas came from our regular ping-ponging of essay drafts.
3. A supportive and confidence-building mentor -- the MBA application process is grueling and long. You have moments of self-doubt and exhaustion. Jessica was there at all times to help me get back on the horse. This dimension of Jessica's partnership is one I have come to deeply appreciate. More than anyone, Jessica understands what you're going through. She helps you stay positive, focused and productive.
