How much weight is put on applicants who started their own business? How does this compare to other applicants (analysts, investors, managers, etc.)?
I took some time off and founded a restaurant/bar that later expanded to multifunctional establishment (club, charity, tournaments, etc). I handle all the HR, financial documents, inventory, social media, and a little of the bartending. Basically, I do everything except for cooking and cleaning.
We have been in business for two years, and I am in the process of training a successor for when I'm in B-school. I have returned to finish my undergraduate work, but I am concerned about the transition - what if they ask me "You've barely had your undergraduate degree, why B-school?"
Is it enough to express my desire to continue learning to turn what I have into something greater (or maybe make more of them)?
Thank you for reading and for your input,
Peter
