Hi All,

My name is Hari. I am from Delhi. After completing my B-tech from kurukshetra university I joined HCL tech and I am currently working as Project lead. I am currently managing a team of 10 people. I gave GMAT in Sept this year and scored a decent 740. Due to family constraints I was not able to apply to any B-School this year. But I will be applying to ISB and other B-Schools next year (i.e. 2014).

In HCL, the client i work for is a US based logistics company. In last 5 year - while performing roles ranging from developer to team lead to Business analyst - I have gain significant knowledge of logistics and supply chain domain. Now I want to club this knowledge with an MBA and pursue a career in this domain.


my acads are

10th - 78%

12th - 74%

B-tech - 73% (Non IIT/NIT)

GMAT - 740

Work Exp. 7yrs (IT)


the queries I have are:

1) which all colleges - India and abroad - should i target?

2) How should I go about creating my profile so that my area of interest is highlighted properly?

3) How should I utilize the time from now to round 1 next year to strengthen my profile?

I know the details are very brief and queries are very general but lets consider this a way to start a conversation.
