eBay businesses and MBA programs

by QuantumP7 » Mon Jul 30, 2007 8:26 pm
I was wondering how having an eBay business looks on an application to MBA programs. Does it count for entrepreneurship or business experience or anything like that? I'm talking about an eBay business where you sell about 20 or so products per month.

Is it a plus for an application or do admissions people ignore things like that?

Hi QuantumP7,

I would definitely talk about your eBay business in your application. Even if it's just a hobby, it shows that you can handle the administrative tasks of running a business and you have taken the initiative to start your own business.

Good luck!
