本人在high tech公司做consultant，做的是banking analysis方面。。请教，写essay的时候应该侧重哪块呢？

谢谢版主！
发帖后自己反省了一下觉得问得是太泛泛了。准备今年申请，但是工作很忙还没开始了解essay，自勉一下开始加油！

Hey there! It is impossible to say, since we don’t know you very well of course. J But let’s try to generalize. You should focus on the aspects of your job that link to your future career goals. So for example, if you want to go into consulting, you should focus on teamwork, problem solving…all the aspects that you will need to do in order to be a successful consultant. At the same time, if you want to go into IBanking, you should focus on quantitative skills—the things you will need to do in order to be a successful banker. You must connect your past experiences to your future goals—if you can do this, you will be in great shape my friend. Hope this helps, and good luck!

Many thanks Frank. That's actually my pain right now. I love my current consulting job, touching all exciting area - banking, high-tech and related business - but don't have to squeeze so much on myself(or so to say, can still be a pure person). On the other side, I also would like to adventure the challenging IBanking secret world. The only uncertainty is I'm not sure if I would love it so much as I do for consulting. Personally I believe I'm an open and challenge-aholic person though.

Guess I need to search bit more and make my mind before rashing into other questions.

Thanks again.

Good point. But think of it this way too – you don't necessarily HAVE TO do the job you will present as your goal to the AdCom. You can, of course. But plenty of folks end up doing something entirely different than what they thought. The thing to think about when preparing your essays is: do these goals make sense? And then you would try and make links with whatever goal you are going for. So if you want to go for banking, you would emphasize the banking part of things.
