Hello,
I would appreciate if someone could evaluate my profile. Thanks in advance!
Profile:
Spanish, age 31.
Civil Engineer from University of La Coruña.
GPA=8.5/10 (1st of my class and 2nd best in the country among civil engineering students)
1 academic year in the University of Wales Swansea (UK) under the Erasmus program
Master in Renewable Energy from the EOI (School of Industrial Organization, Madrid), sponsored by my company.
GMAT 730 (Q49, V41, AWA5.0, IR6). 1st attempt.
Work experience:
7 years in a middle-sized Spanish energy company:
2 years as designer and later on as site manager of the construction of a hydropower station in Spain
2 years as project manager of several PV Plants in continental Greece and involved in business development in Spain (starting projects in the renewable energy sector based on technologies in which my company had no previous experience: biomass and energy efficiency projects).
During this stage, I was also responsible for the technical assessment of international renewable energy projects (acquisitions) and the preparation of bids (both national and international).
3 years as project manager developing the most important project of my firm at this moment: 8 wind farms in Spain.
Major achievements:
-Start of my career: Managed the construction of a hydropower station, meeting the deadline and within budget (7.5 M€). Led a team of more than 8 people (> 60 people and several companies were involved in the construction).
-In the middle of my career: I managed the disinvestment of my company in Greece (story of a failure...)
-Most recently: I led the preparation of the bid package for one of the most important tendering processes of wind power in Spain, which resulted in 231 MW of power (250 M€) awarded to my company, competing with and beating big players in the sector. I am currently developing all those projects.
Extracurricular activities:
Captain of the handball team at highschool; semi-professional player until I was 25 years old.
Competed in several regattas at national level (my family had a professional sailing team) and, in tandem, in some international ones (though as amateur).
Active member of the Spanish Chamber of Civil Engineers. Recently elected as member of the regional board.
Goal:
Get to private equity in the renewable energy domain. I am particularly attracted to green investment management.
This is just a summary. Based on the above, would you be so kind to suggest which schools you think I should apply to?
Haas, Fuqua, MIT , Ross and McCombs appeal to me...I would like to go to the USA
Though, given my age, should I start looking for programs in Europe?
Any help would be appreciated!
