MBA求定位【三年工作经验】

大马哥

香港前三名学校本科毕业，3年工作经验
2个月法国巴黎银行summer analyst实习
1.5年在香港的一间外资投行，Equity Research Associate
1.5年在一间上市公司做企业融资部经理


GMAT还没考，正在复习，但感觉没有传说中那么难

LZ的BG很不错呢，GPA大概多少？个人感觉，在GMAT稳定发挥的情况下，目测S16应该是妥妥的，LZ还可以考虑冲冲M7

Urbanwood

通在准备申请中，在美国读的本科和硕士，所以也认识一些MBA。
感觉 LZ 的背景很好啊，好好准备GMAT 和 essay 肯定很好。

定位这件事情很难啊 1.几句话很难概况个人的情况，尤其是软件 2. 这些年学校录取有时候也挺偏的，更多是适合不适合的问题。
所以别拘泥于定位什么的啦，喜欢的都申请一下，好好准备材料肯定有好结果

同加油

有一天喝酒高管跟我讲要promote我到投资者关系主管，并且发100万股期权...

但是工作这几年见过的套路太多了，而且股价要是跌的话期权就是白纸，还不涨工资....
而且Corporate确实闲的蛋疼...

而且我也确实想回投行，但现在经济形势确实不好，年初巴克莱裁员我好多同学都被裁了....

所以还是先好好准备吧....

Hey there,
And good to hear from you!

Now, I'd LOVE to help you out and get down with your profile.

The thing is I am missing detail.

I need a LOT more info from you - school name, employer name, titles, promotions, greatest achievements, volunteer work, sports, community service, religious involvement, leadership.. etc. before I can give you a real evaluation.

It will also be very helpful if you can elaborate upon your goals.

anyhow for the meantime from what I CAN see, your profile looks very strong! If you get that GMAT at 730+ you should be in very good shape indeed.

Have a look at some of the other very detailed profile requests on this board and do something similar and I'll be happy to get back to you.

Best,
Jon Frank

我在投行训练过，感觉GMAT其实超简单。。。

Hey there,
And good to hear from you!

Hi Jon,

Thanks for your reply. I think it is better that I introduce my backgrounds first.

My experience:
10 week summer analyst experience at BNP Hong Kong (summer in 2013)
1.5 years in Hong Kong branch of Jefferies, as equity research associate (2014.9 - 2015.12)
around 1 year at a listed company, as corporate finance manager (2016.1 - present)

I graduated from University of Hong Kong, and received my bachelor's degree in Economics with upper 2nd honor in 2014

Other backgrounds
Recently, I had dinner with my current company's senior management, and CFO indicated that I could be promoted to Investors Relation Director and granted stock options, in a few months... If that comes true, I might wait another 2-3 years before my application. Otherwise, I might just launch my MBA application before the deadline of the 2nd round MBA application this year (If the chance of getting admitted in R1 and R2 is almost the same, why not do this year?).
One of my current problems is that I have never taken a GMAT exam before, and I just started my preparations this Monday. I have completed half of the verbal questions in the OG, and the correctness can reach around 90%. Actually, I answered most multiple choice questions in the Verbal section based on my intuition - the incorrect choices just sound too weired. I am not sure whether this is the right way to prepare, but I still decided to take the exam at the end of Oct this year; and if the score is good, I should kick start my applications in November.

My career goal
After working in the investment industry and then in a listed corporate, I think I have a better picture of what I want to do in the future. My long-term goal is to work with a buy side - either a long/short hedge fund, or a private equity firm. In addition, as Chinese enterpreneurs' demand for global asset alloction is rising, and Chinese capital market is still under-developed, overseas investment management experience could help me better seize this opportunity and probably achieve a successful career in the future. As a result, if I am able to get admissions from a sound MBA program, I prefer to work in the finance industry after graduation, for instance, ECM, Equity Research, buy-side companies, etc. So MBA programs with a focus on value investing/finance might be the best fit for me.

Best,
Martin
