Hi

I dream to live and work in Canada. However I'm not sure if Canada is able to propose great MBA programs.

I'm Ukrainian, 27 years old, 7 years of work experience in global companies, mainly in sales and marketing, last 3 years held senior positions with more than 50 people department under management.

GPA 3.9/4.0
GMAT - aiming at 650
Volunteer experience - founded center for prostitutes and young homeless people

My goal is to become a Chief Commercial officer in Canadian technologic company.

What programs would you advice to consider?

thanks,
Mikhail

Hi Mikhail,

I'm not sure about CCO positions in tech companies specifically, but Canada does have some good MBA programs. You may want to consider looking at Rotman (U of Toronto), Ivey (U of Western Ontario), Desautels (McGill), Sauder (U of British Columbia), Schulich (York), and others.

Definitely see if they would be a good fit for you, whether your desired companies/industries recruit for your desired position there etc.

Good luck!

"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."
