Hi Stacy

I am an IT graduate from India and currently i am working in a fast food chain 'SUBWAY' as a Manager in UK from last 2 years.

my
undergrad percentage score is 66.16 %
GMAT score is 710

About my work experience,I did join my current workplace SUBWAY as a trainee 2 years ago and was promoted to superviser and then Manager in 3 and 6 months time respectively.

i have also worked in a contact centre in india before this for 1 year.and i also have a handful of experience in a fast food restaurant as a supervisor for 1 year.

I have worked as a secretary of the college computer club,and was the captain of the college cricket team. i did won few quiz prizes and programming competitions as well but that's not releted to my current job.

AS I am an IT graduate but my interest was always in customer service industry i.e. I joined contact centre after my graduation, but then somehow my love for food took me into the restaurant business and now I am looking to further expand my career options and thats why i want to do MBA.

i am looking to do my MBA for good finance skills and good career options as in future i want to work in some good consultancy firm.

so please help me in charting out the best possible Bschools for me and please comment on my profile as well.

I really cannot suggest schools - there are so many schools and you need to think about what you want from a program and find some schools that are a good fit for your needs.

The biggest issue I am finding with your candidacy is your career path and aspirations. You say that you have a passion for customer service and food, and I expected you to say that you wanted to pursue a career in hospitality. But then you said you want to improve your finance skills and land a job in consulting. I don't see how any of these pieces fit together. You need to put some thought into weaving a cohesive story together. It is fine for all of these to be interests and piecesof your story, but you need to find a way to tie them together.
