Hi
I need help with deciding what to have as my last job post before applying to a business school. I am shooting to work in business consultancy or product marketing management post my mba. My career line has been sales operations and sales operations managment (u can get more highlights from my full profile below) for the next few months before my 2014 MBA (might extend to 2015) I am having two job offers, the one I choose will serve as the most recent post in my MBA application.
One is within my original career line of sales operations and corporate sales and will be considered a vertical growth in my profile and it's also a managerial post. The other is relevant to the field I want to enter post my MBA which is product marketing, purchasing and ecommerce but its a notch above an entry level which may look like a drop in my work experience sequence. Plus its not a managerial post.
Which would serve my MBA application better. I am applying to Fuqua, Kellog and Ross
-------------------
My profile:
- GPA: 2.8, major: Computer Science, School: Cairo University ( top reputable university in Egypt)

Work experience: 8+ years of experience, 5 after graduation, 3+ during school ( full time job)
Function: sales, particularly Telesales, all my experience was in Call centers(outsourced telesales campaigns from US UK and AU to egypt, so the call centers I worked in are in EGYPT but the companies
represted were multinational like Verizon yellowpages, superpages and so).

Promotions: Sales rep (1+ years), Sales Supervisor ( 2 years) Sr. Sales supervisor (1 yr)
