如题

看到有个mm1.5yrs拿到了hbs,感觉是不是mba越来越不看重经验了呢

还是想早点申请啊,虽然我也知道9个月的经验有点太短了

The key question is: why mba?

好吧,为了转行,现在做快消的logistics,其实自己不是很喜欢
觉得更希望做些偏分析的工作,或者说不那么operational的

然后一直想有机会转到金融或者咨询

then, MBA may not be the right solution for your current situation. You should

think about the following:
1, searching for entry level positions in the Finance or Consulting - I know this

is gonna be hard, especially for big firms. But try to see whether there's any

boutique firms, that could provide a solid analytical foundation for you.
2, working in current FMCG company. Then apply MBA after a couple of more years.

Recruiters in consulting also hire people with FMCG pre-MBA backgrounds, especially

for the marketing strategy firms.

If you goal is to become a banker or consultant, applying MBA now might not help

you to realize your goals, since:
1, when hiring associates, these firms prefer top school MBAs. Given your short

experience and your goal statements, the chance to get in is slim
2, when hiring associates, they are looking for people either (1) solid pre-MBA

backgrounds in consulting/banking or, (2) solid industry experience, that will

actually inject new energy into the firm

Just my two cents, didn't see the ADCOM will be convinced by your goal and

experience. But if you are determined to become an Entrepreneur and already are

operating a boutique company. Then, you got a good chance

重要的是你目前做过了些什么,这些经历如何帮助你确定你未来的方向。9个月的经验也许只是你的工作经验,而你可能课外活动非常活跃,那些也可以算。

Always ask yourself, what will you bring to the table? Don't just think about what you'll get out of this mba experience. That's just too selfish, and top schools are never satisfied with this answer. Also, i've heard many Adcom stress the importance of finding yourself before you go to mba, instead of trying to use the mba experience to find yourself. Believe it or not, 2 years is an awfully short time, and you don't have that much room to figure out what you want. You need to go into action right away, and grab all the opportunities that you can find to prepare yourself to be the best candidate the future companies want.

不好意思,上一段是英文听来的,懒得翻译了。

I disagree with the guy before. In fact, you need to absolutely think about what you want to get out of this MBA experience. Most people think about things like "brand", "alumni", etc. But what does that actually MEAN? What will you GET from this? A lot of people don't have a convincing answer- that's where they fail.

Lack of work experience is not an issue- I went to Wharton straight after college.

thanks
i think douce is stressing the inportance of your contribution to school, like your

unique experience brings ppl something new

and of course, your plan is important too


我学校活动也不算丰富啦,大学时候还有,大学之后就。。
虽然工作经验只有九个月到目前,可是之前零零碎碎的做的一些事情浪费了很多时间
简单说,就是想创业,不是写biz plan拿风投的,是下层路线的创业,当时觉得发财很容易,

结果乱七八糟的失败了
本科时候摆过小摊,做过中介(自己一个人的那种),打过很多工
研究生后做过培训,销售,秘书,餐馆,想多接触些行业,看看哪个能发财,结果没发财还差

点把自己搭进去,然后就干脆工作了-
貌似写到建立里边也怪拿不出手的

还是建议即使LZ最早申请的话 也要明年申请

为什么不好好的先工作一段时间再说呢?想清楚WHY吧.
