I’m an experienced researcher at a globally-renowned sustainability-focused research organization, with a current focus on land management & engaging indigenous communities for development.

Big Life Wins:

I have successfully drafted a policy proposal for the national government that has been adopted and led to the creation of a unit tasked to deal with land mismanagement.

My long-term goal is to develop my country’s, chronically poor, nonprofit infrastructure, to support local nonprofits. Immediately post-MBA, I hope to secure a job at companies such as Givewell, the Bridgespan Group, or the Gates Foundation in positions related to business development, to learn best practices in nonprofit infrastructure.

Think about the skills you will need to acquire to reach your dream job as it isn’t obvious that an MBA would be required from what you have listed. Assuming you can put together a strong narrative, your stats should fall in the range of Yale’s. Are you planning to apply in R2 or R3? With 3 years of work you will be on the light side so you will have to …
