Start a project with jonjin!	Mentor: jonjin	Accepted at: UCLA Anderson Industry Exp: Computer Related, Health Services and Health Care, Technology Gender: Male Background: United States
	Mentor Details: I was a Computer Science major and have a background in software development in a variety of industries. I have a lot of experience working in start-ups and pitched an entrepreneurship angle in my applications. I would ideally be able to help people with a similar background but have also edited successful essays for friends in other functions and industries.
Start a project with gbaker!	Mentor: gbaker	Accepted at: Harvard HBS Industry Exp: Banking, Energy, Retail Gender: Male Background: United States
	Mentor Details: I am an entreprenuer who went straight from undergrad, where I majored in engineering, to HBS. I would be best suited for mentees coming from non-traditional backgrounds. I can provide feedback to applicants from these backgrounds trying to explain their reasoning for going to business school. For those of you coming from traditional finance backgrounds, my girlfriend also graduated from HBS with me and now works at a prominent investment bank (hint: the only one of the major players that hasn't gone backgrupt or been bought out yet). She will be helping me provide feedback as well. Most applicants will have stellar academic and/or professional credentials, but good applicants need to have more than just professional ambition. They need to have big (but realistic) dreams and show how they are going to have a major impact in their communities. So in addition to helping with some of the more mundane parts of the application, I can make sure you paint an interesting picture of yourself, your goals, and your dreams.
Start a project with Nontraditional!	Mentor: Nontraditional	Accepted at: Harvard HBS Industry Exp: Banking, Engineering, Finance, Military Gender: Male Background: United States
	Mentor Details: My background allowed me to tell a somewhat different story on my application essays. I came out of the maritime industry where I spent several years as a crewmember on commercial vessels and then worked in management. I was also in the Naval Reserve for eight years. I believe I can add perspective to those who do not come out of the "traditional" MBA applicant mold. Everyone has valuable experiences, and what will set you apart is the ability to tell a compelling story about how those lead you to business school. I was a round 2 admit in 2006. I had put in a hastily prepared application in round 3 the year before and received valuable feedback from the admissions office for my 2006 effort. I was able to learn a great deal from admissions about what they look for when selecting admits from a sea of qualified applicants.
Start a project with trump!	Mentor: trump	Accepted at: LBS Industry Exp: Accounting, Consulting, Finance Gender: Male Background: India
	Mentor Details: An applicant's biggest strength is his/her ability to demonstrate quality work experience. I had less than 4 years of work experience (at a Big4 accountancy firm) at the time of admission and my biggest hurdle was to explain to the admissions committee what I had to offer to the class with an average work experience of 6 years. Also, coming from a competitive demography, it becomes important to distinguish yourself from the rest of the applicants from the same pool. Looking forward to working with you.
Start a project with David!	Mentor: David	Accepted at: Columbia GSB Industry Exp: Government, Military, Non Profit Gender: Male Background: United States
	Mentor Details: During my work experience, I had plenty of leadership and situational management; my applications highlighted my unique skill set, while explaining my academic potential (not having worked in an particularly academic environment). I am eager to help applicants from similarly nontraditional backgrounds who have overwhelming strengths in some areas of their applications and concerns in others (often, academic scores). I am excited to help craft applicants' pitches - and to ensure that theme pervades all aspects of the application. Look forward to helping you!
Start a project with Sarah!	Mentor: Sarah	Accepted at: Kellogg Industry Exp: Advertising Gender: Female Background: United States

Have worked as a consultant and as a client. If you are trying to do career change from consulting to industry or vice versa you will be able to see the two sides of the story.

I graduated from HBS in 2008 and have quite a few friends/acquaintances apply to HBS, Wharton, Kellogg, Berkeley and Stanford. My strenghts lie in formulating an overall strategy to build a cohesive application and I can definitely offer help on specific essays. I will ensure that my client's essays clearly and accurately integrate and portray their intent, objectives, and personality to make a compelling case for admission. Career wise, I owned two businesses and worked at two top consulting firms prior to attending HBS. Feel free to choose me if you would like targeted, constructive feedback.

Start a project with Clarissa!	Mentor: Clarissa	Accepted at: MIT Sloan Industry Exp: Consulting, Government Gender: Female Background: United States
	Mentor Details: I am great at helping people to dig down into their stories to make them vivid and memorable. Based on your profile I can help you develop a strategy to highlight things that the adcom may question - if you have an engineering background we might want to highlight your people skills etc. I am an excellent writer both from a stylistic and technical point of view (top 1% on Verbal GMAT). A good app is the meeting of 1. basic academic and professional criteria (grades, GMAT, job) and 2. pertinent examples of your life/professional experiences. My personal take is that given adequate 1 criteria you can write your way in or out of a mba programme. Read Clarissa's blog

	Mentor Details: I am 2011 class admitted student of LBS (and 3 other top US schools). Coming from diverse background including embedded SW team manager, army commander and counselor for international education organization, I bring unique view on leadership and excellence in business education. With average GMAT (starts with a 6 :)) score I had to work really hard to develop my essays strategy. Now I will apply the lessons I've learned from this process to your application! Here is what one of the guys I helped after I got accepted had to say about our work: "As an international, with an Engineering background, totally unfamiliar with MBA application process, is was important for me to leverage the knowledge of someone who already mastered this MBA application process. No doubt, Alex exceeded my expectations. He provided a extremely detailed feedback, making sure I will "fit in" the school, while "standing out" in the applicant pool. His insights allowed me to crystallize my essays, and present a the best possible package."

I'm passionate about mentoring young and ambitious candidates achieve their dream of admission into a Top B-school. My strengths lie in crafting an overall strategy with all parts of application and at the same time paying attention to minute details in essays and resumes to help you perfect them.
