Admission essay excerpt
When asked about my strength, especially during interviews, I can think of one thing above others, and that is, my social skills. That’s what made me a great salesperson, an effective manager and team player. I love working with people and addressing their needs the best way possible. Through practical sales experience, I learned how to deal with different types of people, especially the customers. Time and again, I’ve pushed myself to boundaries, trying to meet deadlines and doing my best to deliver timely service to clients with help from my team. From working as an executive secretary, I’ve come a long way and have worked my way up into becoming a sales and services manager. And I know that there are greater heights for me to conquer through higher business learning and fully developed managerial skills. With vision, tenacity, and perseverance, I believe that I can carve a brighter future through MBA education.
