Cover letters are a requirement when applying to MBA schools and I have reviewed cover letters that had touch details or too less, use of jargon and many such mistakes. So thought of sharing some tips that I used when I applied to b-schools

Yes yes most of us stay away from small talks (including me) but at times they can save a downward spiraling conversation especially when there are awkward silences

Career planning is a constant process

You start with self assessment

then set goals,

find roles that meet your goals,

meet people to help you understand those roles better this enables you to shortlist the roles best fit for you,

You proceed to apply to the roles.

Get selected and start adding value while adding new and honing existing skills.

Cycle repeats....

Practice with people you trust and aks for their feedback. Can they understand the story? Are you covering each aspect of storytelling I.e., situation, task, action and result?

This will help you to get a 3rd person perspective and further improve your stories and interview skills

Recording yourself and listening back to do tweaks to your storytelling is the best way to practice for an interview (especially these days when most interviews are happening online/virtually)

Applying to b-schools is very stressful.

One way to help ease out the stress is to prioritize the schools that you are targeting to any to.

For me, the important criteria was a 1 year program and small class size.

It doesn't mean I didn't apply to schools with 2 year program or large class, but I applied to the ones that fit into my criteria first and then to the rest.

This helped me to stay focused, apply to schools that meet my expectations and be slightly stress free.

Hope this helps you!!
