Hi everybody,

I seek some wise words from a good soul :)
I am planning to apply for the MSC Finance (part time) course at LBS. I graduated in Tourism in 2004 and worked in the field for 8 years (2000-2008). The highest position I held was as a Reception Manager in a prestigious Hotel branch having 14 people reporting to me.
In 2009 I decided to change fields and found a job at Bloomberg. I started in the Help Desk where I worked for 2 years. During this time I went through different types of trainings where I learned about different asset classes, market players, financial training, etc.
After 2 years I moved to Sales where I focused on Equities. I am now the account manager of a Major Bank (Tier 1) and look after the Trading desk, Equity Sales, ECM, Private Banking and Prime Brokerage desk.
I am planning to start studying for the GMAT but before that i would like to hear from you if you think I have any chances to get admitted at LBS.

Thank you very much for your time !!
