Top 3 Pointers for building a world-standard Resume’ for Business school applications.
- The difference between a “Resume'” and a “CV”: A Resume’ is highly professional, concise and accomplishment focused while the CV may carry other personal details such as “date of birth” and the like.
- A typical B-school resume is 1-page in length: The maximum is 2 – 3 pages (3 pages will actually be an overflow)
- Accomplishments and NOT “responsibilities/JDs” matter: Business school applications almost always have separate sections where you can include details of your job title and the like. Unless, specifically asked for in your application, including detailed responsibilities may actually work against you.
Sample Business School Resumes
(By applicant background)
Entrepreneur or CEO or Business Unit Head
Sr. Financial Analyst (Investment Banking)
Production management/operations (Industrial Setting)
Supply Chain Analyst
IT (Information Technology) – Lead IT Architect
Sales Professional
Marketing Manager

Dear MBA Admission Gurus:
I have scored 740 (Q 50, V40, IR 7) in the GMAT.
As a next step I need to write the application essays and I am struggling with that part as I do not have much time for the first round applications for most colleges. It will be very helpful to me if I get some guidance on the Application Essay writing area.
I have applied to the below colleges in the GMAT :
Harvard Business School (I am keeping it for the second round) MIT Sloan , UCLA Anderson, Kellogg School of Management, Yale university.
Regards,
Aparajita
