Hello everyone, hoping to get input re: my situation and applying to an MBA program. UG in Econ from a good liberal arts college, master's degree, licensed CPA.

I worked in the US for a Big 4 firm in for 1 year after school before transferring to Canada with my firm (Big 4) bc I did not get the H1-B. I have been in Canada a year now. I am currently considering an offer to move back to the US with the firm but I am not sure how that would be viewed by AdComs. I am/was planning on applying R1 this coming fall. How will admissions view moving between offices every 12 months when assessing my candidacy?

Thank you for posting your question.

Moving from one office to another, especially with the same firm does not hurt your candidacy. It could even help by showing more experiences working with different groups. You may highlight the expertise or qualities you have that make you attractive or qualified to work in both countries, or even the different experiences and activities you gain or participate in outside of work.

Hope this helps!

"Target Test Prep is the closest to the official version of the GMAT exam, about 99% accuracy in terms of the quality and quantity of information. The course has excellently created singular sets of focused lessons and tests for every possible topic that one could come across in the official GMAT exam."

"The TTP course maximizes the efficiency of the time you spend studying. It will take time and effort but I could almost guarantee that if you complete the course exactly as it is laid out you will get an amazing score. They also have a very responsive team willing to help with any questions you might have."

"TTP has two things that I think no other test prep company offers: A teaching approach that reinforces understanding and an attitude that will give you the mental preparedness needed to succeed on the test. TTP gives you a deep understanding of the concept you need to know while teaching you how to think."
