Now coming on to the point...I am a undergrad from india and i have completed my Engg.(I.T) from an above average college with 70%(we have%system here).Now about my activities i have participated in lots of inter& intra university level competition and won also.presented paper on various National conferences and i am National player of chess.

i have a teaching work ex of 1 year in a Engineering Institute and have Scored 720 in GMAT. What i need is your suggestion as you know INDIAN I.T pool is over represented i want your suggestion to choose my carrier .
Currently i have offer's from 2 TOP I.T MNC's .but then again i dont want to enter the field which can harm my MBA dream.

Can you please suggest what kind of job which can make me competitive for top 10 schools.I can also opt for banking, finance sector that wont be much difficult or continue with my current job and yes i am planning to take admission 2 or 3 year down the lane.

If you need more information do tell me but please help me out.. to present my self in a different way to schools.

Hello,

Ultimately the most important factor regarding your career in terms of your future competitiveness for MBA programs isn’t whether it is different or unusual on the surface. The important factors are how fast you grow and advance, how much impact you can demonstrate relative to other accomplished peers, and what you have to say (your insights) as a result of this experience. Therefore, I suggest pursuing the path that is most exciting and appealing to you, because doing so will make you more likely to fulfill these other factors. Also, in your MBA applications, your experience will need to connect directly or indirectly with your goals – a point to keep in mind as you plan your next steps.

Best regards,
