Your resume is often the first impression you’ll give the MBA admissions committee, so don’t make it the afterthought. A deathly (and common) mistake is to reduce it to a laundry list of job titles, dates, qualifications, and places – instead, your MBA resume should deliver a concise overview of what you’ve accomplished that sets the stage for the rest of your application, and – hopefully – for your future admissions interview. Your new target audience – the MBA admissions committee at your top schools – is distinctly different than potential employers. For your application, you need to go beyond simply how you are qualified, and show how you are a leader, a results-generator, and also how you will make an impact on life on campus outside the classroom.poetsandquants.com
