Sima aunty from Indian Matchmaking says if you get 60-70% of your criteria in your life partner then you should marry them.
Unfortunately, Ivy League colleges admissions don’t work that way at least for us Indians. In addition to having a 100% super perfect application, they look for spike factors.
Even though I wasn’t from a Tier 1 college, I made up for it with a high GMAT score, quick career progression and side hustles.
One thing that helped me with career progression was continuously upskilling myself.
My employers were kind enough to sponsor my courses which helped me become better at my job. It also helped me stand out in job application.
My progression to PwC happened through a head hunter (people hired by HRs) without even me applying.
If you’re someone who is preparing to go for higher education abroad or within India, don’t just focus on exams like GMAT, GRE or CAT but also give importance to upskilling yourself.
upGrad has been doing some excellent work in helping students upskill in fields such as Data Science, Marketing, MBA etc by partnering with world class institutions such as IITs and IIMs.
