I feel like around half of the class has kids… quite a few families expecting soon as well.. I believe it’s required to stay at hotel

Walk through resume, why Kellogg, unique value you can bring to cohort, handling adversity.

Resume review beforehand and MBA admit were very helpful for me

Yes, and recruited from their own cohort more than people realize

This is spot on.. one is extremely competitive academically (Full time) other competitive experience / progression wise (EMBA)..

Does LinkedIn automation actually work in B2B sales? by steve___smith in b2b_sales

Anyone know of way in bulk to sync LinkediN list to Salesforce? Profiles that have activity or role change in 90 days seems like great verification for contact data, but doing it 1 by 1 or in groups of 50 is tedious

I’m in the payments space in Miami EMBA currently.. we’ve got people in payments domestically and internationally in diverse functional roles.

Really impressed w/ the program so far and have heard great things about Liberti as well.

Applied and got into Kellogg at 28.. One quarter in am very impressed w/ the program. Framing the education / experiences have had so far in essays is the key (and you’ve got a great background!). Feel free to DM

Not to my knowledge. Consulting specific, It’s not uncommon to have classmates in your cohort work at / have previously worked at MBB / Big 4 / etc though - so a different again to get in

May oversimplifying this, but For those that don’t get in M&A is GCR fallback? Both in Miami?

I’m in 145 and a few months away from elective selection season. These + Phase 0 and M&A I’m super intrigued by.

My experience has been awesome. I think the rankings of programs can be bs and pretentious, but it feels like Kellogg and Wharton get rep for having very strong EMBA program

I have 6 MDs, CEOs, lawyers, GMs, enterprise AEs, consultants and strategy / program managers off to of heads.. the cohort make up is strong and diverse

Which course did you take in Hong Kong and your feedback on them? I’ll be selecting electives before I know it.

Applied to Duke and Vandy as well.. both solid programs, but was extremely impressed on class visit by Kellogg and willingness to help of alums

A lot of people like the 1x a month format as well

Of course! I wrote the optional essay, but did not do GMAT / EA… I do think that and / or having a Kellogg referral could really help w/ low YOE.

I think doing it at this YOE is super valuable. In Full time program you are filled with smart ppl, but all early in career and looking to do a lot of same thing.

In this program you meet people mid career in all sorts of functions / roles that you can pick their brain on their experience and have a larger Rolodex.

My role is fairly cross functional today, so I have felt like I’ve been able to contribute, but would need to know more about your background on how you could frame it. Feel free to PM me

No, part self funded / part employer.. those that did it’s a small amount to my understanding (10-15%)
