Hi Mr. Operations Analyst, Thanks for posting your profile. This is Debbie Choy, Senior Consultant at mbaMission. I like your unusual work background. In my 8 years working with candidates, I don’t see many candidates who have both an operations background in a top finance firm, as well as start-up experience in e-commerce. Be sure to share with the Admissions Committee (AdCom) why you made this pivot. What motivated you? What were you able to leverage from your past operations experience that helped you succeed in e-commerce? (Congrats on hitting your revenue goals within 6 months!) These insights will help AdCom better understand you and your career goals. Further, I like that you’re engaged with your community through your church. This helps demonstrate community leadership, which is another quality that is attractive to AdCom. One potential area of concern is your GPA which is a tad below the average at Kellogg. If there were any circumstances that affected your GPA, consider sharing your side with AdCom. Overall, I think you have a differentiated profile and would have a solid shot at Kellogg. Iām happy to discuss other specific questions about your profile in a 1:1 consult. Wishing you the best in your MBA journey!
