Hi,
How helpful is it to have a non-peer recommendation come from the business school to which you're applying? For my 2nd recommendation to Kellogg, it's a toss-up between a director-level alumnus of Kellogg (MBA and MEM) who left the company almost 9 months ago and a soon-to-be resigned Senior VP. They both supervised me for equal amounts of time.
So all things being equal, does a director-level recent grad trump the Senior VP? The Senior VP has a PhD in operations research. He does not have an MBA.
Thanks!
Aaron

), but the mother trump of them all is how excited they would be to write you an AMAZING recommendation.
