Your project manager and confidante, who will guide you throughout the engagement from your official launch session through to your acceptance. As former Admissions Deans at highly selective business schools, they have valuable insight into the MBA application process and how MBA admissions committees function across the board.
These are Executive Coaches who specialize in Leadership Development. They lead you through a uniquely designed self-discovery process centered around four themes: Fit, Abilities, Motivations & Experiences. This lays the groundwork for the rest of your engagement with us at MBA Link, and positions you to craft a compelling MBA application.
Our MBA Resume Coaches have been on both sides of the fence, as MBA candidates seeking admission into business schools, and then later as managers hiring MBAs for jobs. Your Resume Coach will help you present an MBA-ready resume that highlights your accomplishments and ability for continued professional success.
Essay Coaches are alumni from top MBA programs that have a passion for writing, and years of experience teaching MBA applicants how to write compelling essays. They will help you craft your narrative throughout your MBA admissions process, as well as effectively communicate your value proposition to those who make the final decision on your acceptance.
Interview Coaches have extensive experience interviewing MBA applicants and helping them prepare for a variety of formats (i.e.: traditional one-on-one, group interview, video, etc.). We try to match you up with an Interview Coach who attended the school you are targeting, or who otherwise has insight into that school's interview process for MBA applications.

Finding The Right Fit For Your MBA Program Admission Is Not A Linear Process
Contrary to popular belief, there may be several excellent MBA programs that meet your needs and eventual career goals.
We advise clients to hedge MBA admission risks by applying to multiple schools that meet your school choice criteria.
Our experience suggests that clients who conduct extensive school research, identify several target schools, and apply to each based on authentic, compelling rationale for what each school uniquely offers, increase admission odds to multiple MBA programs far beyond those who don't.
