What is one thing you bought for your home office since quarantine that was the most worth it?

What company are you at P?

WLB seems to improve after VP level at my firm. Curious if thats true at other firms 🧐

Male 🐠, what is your go to for dress shirts? Started with Hilditch and Key, then went to custom from Hong Kong, and then Charles Tyrwhitt. Love the CT price point and look, but think they’re scratchy.

Question for yall. How likely is an offer once a company decides to do a reference check? I know I am in the final 2, from context clues in interviews. I just dont want to get my hopes up.

Anyone's GSB Portal who doesn't have the Waitlist Tab now? Maybe a botched update? Hearing people in a few different stages of their application with the tab? It has a View Decision button, which just says no decision when picked. If everyone has it, probably a botched update!

Is IB or MBB more difficult to land?

How important is the language test for INEAD - non-native speaker planning to apply with a language I learned and tested on in college

Admitted to NYU Stern and my post MBA goal is IBD at a BB at NYC. Should I consider this good enough given my goal?

Interviewing question: for anecdotal “tell me abt a time when..”, & similar questions - are you allowed to recycle stories from your undergrad years or do they only look for post grad/work stuff? Afraid some of the stories that sounded okay at undergrad recruiting might now come across as a bit “lightweight” in this context...like would they eye roll if we start talking about that one time we did a science competition sophomore year of college (even though it taught an important lesson)..etc.🤔

Anyone have experience working with Fortuna? Would you recommend them?

Friend of mine just got a second interview with Boston Consulting Group (believe they only do 2 rounds). I am really rooting for her.

Anyone know if getting to the second round is a big deal? Or do they move a lot of people on and cut everyone after the second round?

Second round is next Friday, any tips I can give her?

Should I lowball my income on MBA applications (Europe/ Asia) to increase my chances for a scholarship, or does it make no difference ? (*income bound in non liquid investments)

Is starting your own side business seen as a good extracurricular for MBA applications?

Does an MBA (US) make sense for me? Male, Indian, Age 32, Married working in tech consulting with 10 YOE. Base is $165 with steady increases and bonus is typically 15%. I eventually do want to cross the $300K threshold but I know stopping work for 2 years and getting and MBA probably won’t get me a $300K job right away. Becoming a manger in my current company/path will probably get me there in terms of TC. Also considering EMBA from a good school (Wharton Global, Duke, Kellogg, Booth).

Does the profile of your referee matter?

In one month is my mid term review.. Should I let my mentor know I'm applying for mba this year now or should I wait till after the review session? I'm afraid mentioning going to b school would hurt my "fast promotion". What's your guy's experience? :)

When would be the right time for me to get an MBA given my background?

I was a teacher for 4 years and transitioned into the corporate world. I have 6 months experience in marketing and that’s what I currently do, but plan for a lateral move in the future. I’ve seen suggestions of 3-7 years experience - does my teaching experience factor in? Or should I consider the 3-7 years only of my corporate time? Or is an MBA sooner a good move because of my big career transition (and future lateral)?

Boston people - I have a set of GMAT veritas prep books for sale for $50. DM me if interested.
