Hi,
Please find my details below for profile evaluation -
Age-24
Nationality-Indian
Class 10th - 86%
Class 12th - 85%
UG - B.E.(hons.) BITS-Pilani Mechanical Engineering (7.94/10)
GMAT - 750 (q50 v41)
ECs - NTSE Scholar (selected among 1000 top students in India for a Govt of India sponsored scholarship), founder of a club in college, event organizer during college fests, elected as a representative in student mess management committee. Nothing much after passing out from college.
WEx - 2 years & 2 months in a small company which provides solutions for mobile devices. Excellent performance at work. Got promoted twice during the 2 years. Now working as a senior developer.
I want to make a career shift to finance after MBA and I look forward to working in corporate finance roles. I have been trading in equity F&O and currency derivatives for past 1 year. During the course of my work I have worked on development of mobile banking and stock trading solution for a major bank of APAC region. I am also appearing for CFA level 1 exam this December. I plan to justify my career shift by citing these examples.
Target Schools -
ISB, NUS.
PS - I have to work in India after MBA because of family commitments. I do not plan to apply to any of the top US colleges because it would be difficult for me to pay back the huge loan amount while working in India. And I think a degree from 2nd tier US colleges will not hold much value in India. Am I right in thinking so?
