MBA Application Short Answers | The mbaMission Podcast Ep 9

In this episode of the mbaMission podcast, Harold Simansky and Gavriella Semaya discuss the importance of the Short Answer section in MBA applications. They emphasize that the Short Answers are an opportunity to showcase the impact and significance of an applicant's experiences, beyond what is covered in the resume. They discuss how to showcase the impact of your work experience, and how to approach short-term and long-term career goals in the limited space provided. Their conversation highlights the need to make the short answers interesting and compelling to capture the attention of the admissions committee. Takeaways: ✔️ The short answer section of MBA applications is surprisingly important and should not be left to the last minute. ✔️ Short answers should focus on the impact and significance of the applicant's experiences, rather than simply repeating information from the resume. ✔️ When describing job responsibilities, highlight the how and the impact, rather than just the what. ✔️ For early-career professionals, focus on the influence and contributions made within a project or team, even if the direct impact is not clear. ✔️ Avoid exaggerating or overemphasizing the significance of certain experiences, as admissions committees can see through it. ✔️ Short answers should be coherent with the rest of the application and should make the applicant interesting and compelling to the admissions committee. 00:00 Welcome to the mbaMission podcast 00:41 The importance of short answers in MBA applications 02:06 Showcasing impact in the short answers 04:50 Distinguishing factors in your work experience 06:15 Presenting your contributions authentically 08:58 Communicating career goals 10:10 The Why vs. The What 11:13 Final thoughts on MBA application short answers Book your FREE 30-minute MBA admissions consultation with Harold, Gavi, or another one of our experienced MBA admissions consultants by filling out this form: https://www.mbamission.com/consult/mb...
