射击自己？
夏季结束后，接受了下层凸起支架的要约。地点是印度，所以是mo，不是FO. Took a hard look at what I want to do in life recently, and decided I would like to go for a topMBAprogram a few years down the line. Looked it up and it seems accepting a MO job is a straight ding at most top colleges. Is it necessarily true for programs like Wharton/Harvard/Booth? If yes, is switching jobs after just a year viable?
I am confident about other parts of the application - 4 GPA from a target, ECs are top of the line. My only concern is my job. Is there a way out?

Start networking, tightening up the resume and working towards moving to thefront office. It's a grind, but it's absolutely possible.
Thank you for the response. I do hope to grind it out toFOas a last resort, but do you know of people who switched to fields like consulting after a year at MO? I think I should be able to leverage some alumni contacts or my target to land an interview atMBB, since they're also on record hiring sprees here. Or should I try off-cycle now, and not take up my MO job at all?
I would absolutely take the job, it's always easier to find a job when you have a job (less pressure, cashing a check, etc.). I would still network and recruit like crazy, you need a cohesive story about why you did the stop over in the middle office.
For example, I couldn't get intoIB从本科生出来，所以我做了会计。自从我是一名会计专业以来，这对我来说很自然，然后我可以旋转它，因为我与其中一些会计IB团队并意识到我想做这项工作。
You need to be relentless though, it's easy to fall into the inertia trap.
Your application will determine your chances of being accepted. Almost every college views the application holistically and assess on the following:
1）学者 - GPA和大学的参与。
2）GMAT
3) Work Experience - Type of work / Prestige of the Company / Achievements at the roles.
4）论文和洛尔
5）课外活动
这些不是秩序。但是有些学校在一个部分上的权重比另一部分更高。一些学校更喜欢GPA和GMAT，而不是良好的工作经验。而其他人可能更喜欢您参与工作/额外课程> GPA/GMAT。您可以通过查看学校的课堂资料来看到这一点。示例：众所周知，公爵和达登不必担心GPA/GMAT，而是应用程序的其他方面。另一方面，耶鲁大学非常重视您的学者和GMAT。
I do not know where you heard that going into MO is automatically a ding. This is not true. If you see above, you can see the "type of work" is actually a very small aspect of your application. I will also go on to say that most of the incoming students into anMBAprogram do not comes from a prestigious company/traditional jobs. When looking solely at your work experience - you will be assessed on your achievements more than your actual job.
最后 - 我认为您经常思考很多。我已经看到我的朋友进入T10MBA从后台roles. Their careers started on the wrong foot, but they worked on parts of application that they can control. Like GMAT, Essays, getting great LoRs, working on projects at work that are important for the firm, volunteering and being in a position of authority at the volunteer place. Remember - places like Stanford/Harvard want to make future leaders - no matter where they came from.
非常感谢！这非常有用，我认为您对我的思考正确，应该更多地关注其他部分
您甚至还没有开始自己的职业生涯。在接下来的几个月中，使您的GPA尽可能高，同时也练习FO技术。你可以两者都做。
(2) network network network. Eventually someone will shoot you an interview, and now that you are a wiz with technicals you will get your shot to try and transition toFO. Again, these interview invites will be few and far inbetween so you really need to make sure you have the prerequisite skills once you enter the interview room.
(3) Focus on your GMAT once you get into theFOrole. Plenty of Indians get into top B-schools, but the competition is very stiff. Ensuring your GMAT is ABOVE the averages at top schools will be what you need to do. Will it be easy? Absolutely not. Possible, totally.
Any particular tips about networking? I have never had to do it in my life, and I have no idea how to go about any of it
There are so many myths aroundMBAprograms, GPA, job, right kind of career track and what not. I had same myths giving me unnecessary anxiety before I got into a top 5 program. Your job quality has NO bearing onmba接纳潜力，这是您从事这项工作的工作。B学校将看到您是否在工作中成长，您承担更多责任，建议您对您的建议以及最重要的是如何制作故事。
感谢您清除空气。我主要阅读已知网站上的论坛和文章（GMATCLUB/P＆Q等）。您似乎也来自印度 - 您是否介意分享您登陆的哪所学校，以及我在这个职位上的任何提示？
