October 2017 Event Roundup

Are you applying to business school this year? If so, you can enroll in one of our free business school workshops, which are offered both online and in person in major cities across the country!

This month, we invite you to join us in NYC and online! The event lineup includes the following sessions:

  • OCTOBER 11
    MBA INTERVIEW WORKSHOP (Online)
    What do I need to do to prepare for my business school interview? What types of questions will they ask? Is it better to interview with the admissions committee or an alumnus/alumna? These are the types of questions you may be asking yourself and mbaMission is here to help. In an interactive presentation, we will offer advice on best practices to help you prepare and succeed in your business school interviews. We will explore the different types of interviews, what each admissions committee is looking for and tips for time management.
  • OCTOBER 16
    WRITING A STANDOUT HBS APPLICATION ESSAY (Online)
    In our presentation, we will help you conceptualize your essay ideas and understand how to execute, so that your experiences truly stand out. You do not need to be actively working on a $5 billion deal or have won an Olympic gold medal to go to HBS. You just need to have done the everyday things remarkably well, and you must make sure that your essays reflect your actions.
  • OCTOBER 24
    Essay Writing Workshop (Online)
    How can you write essays that grab the attention of MBA admissions committees? In this session, we will use this simple but often perplexing question as the starting point to a workshop for prospective business school applicants. Attendees will walk through a series of exercises that challenge them to uncover their personal and nuanced stories, craft compelling opening statements, develop meaningful goal statements, connect their goals to their target school’s resources, and more.
