Piyush Ranjan, founder of Management Masters, interviews Kashish Minocha, an admit to the HEC Paris and USC Marshall MBA programs.
HEC Paris is one of the best Business schools in France, consistently ranking among the Top 10 MBA programs worldwide.
Kashish graduated from Sri Venkateshwara College, Delhi University, and worked at KPMG in the financial risk domain. Rising through the ranks quickly, she gained expertise in investigating financial crimes and led multiple projects through her tenure.
When she reached out to work with us, her biggest dilemma was if an MBA would really add value to her. As we discused her aspirations and she carried out extensive research to figure out her goals and how they aligned with an MBA, the process opened up the various possibilities and opportunities that an international MBA could bring. At the same time, we helped her craft a compelling story of her achievements, aspirations and motivations.
She eventually received admits from HEC Paris and USC Marshall, both among some of the best MBA programs in the world.
During this interview, we dived into various aspects of her MBA journey, including
- her career journey
- what prompted her to pursue an MBA
- how did she work on her applications
- how did she prepare for GMAT
- choosing her target B-Schools
- what helped her develop her own story
We talked about all this, and what Kashish learnt through the process. At the same time, she shares some amazing insights into what candidates and aspirants should and should not do while preparing for their dream schools.
