What Is The GMAT?

The Next Big Thing in Business School Selection

MBA seekers who are looking for the next step in their career will appreciate the new online platform for holistic business school selection Unimy. It combines artificial intelligence with human expertise to guide applicants in their MBA search and give them an answer to one of their most pressing questions: “Where do I fit in?”

The creators of the platform, who have spent 15 years in the business education field, have designed the experience around 5 easy and intuitive steps. Each step contributes to the selection process that business school candidates go through, but also functions equally well as a stand-alone service. The array of available options makes it easy for users to tap into their preference for technology-based solutions vs. personal interaction and human know-how.

Initiate matching AI

One of the crown jewels of Unimy is certainly inspired and facilitated by technology. The tool appropriately called “Match” enables MBA aspirants to filter out the top 10 schools that best suit their professional background and study preferences. This is possible thanks to the platform’s artificial intelligence matching algorithm, which goes through more than 800 schools and 1,400 MBA programs to locate those that correspond to the selection criteria of each individual user. The personalized nature of the service saves valuable time and effort for business school aspirants who would otherwise have to find their way through the clutter of information available online.

You can try it for free here.

The best part about the tool is how easily accessible and user-friendly it is. To generate their MBA program matches, candidates are first asked to complete their personal profile. The required information is brief but important. It refers to professional and academic experience and study preferences such as program format and location.

“We really tried to develop something useful and time-saving for MBA prospects, no matter where in the world they are located. Unimy’s matching tool is a step in the right direction for candidates looking for the school where they belong, but also for MBA programs interested in determined applicants with relevant qualifications”

– says Kalin Yanev, Business Unit and Research Director at Advent Group, the organization behind Unimy.

More tools to choose from

After getting their MBA matches, users can continue their journey on the platform by opting for another unique feature which sheds more light on the way culture and values differ per school. Video content, alumni webinars, and consulting sessions with business education experts are also part of the package.

Ultimately, there is no better way to discover the full spectrum of possibilities in MBA selection available on the platform than signing up. All prospective business school aspirants are welcome to join and find the MBA that suits them best.

Pursuing an international MBA – Get out there and stretch your limits!

Now that the MBA Fair season has started, business school representatives from the world over will come to your home town. Are they worth attending?

An MBA education will not only give you arguably the most expensive three letters to attach to your name, but will also provide you with an opportunity to push the limits to where you can take your career. The technical and soft skills you will develop throughout the program will help you advance your career as well as improve you as a person.

Get out of your comfort zone

One common phrase you will hear over and over again throughout your MBA is to stretch yourself out of your comfort zone. Due to the heavy course load and all the extracurricular activities you may want to participate in (such as volunteering your time in student clubs, case competitions, study tours and endless projects), you’ll become comfortable being uncomfortable!

You’ll constantly be challenged by your professors, by your peers, and by your colleagues during your internship, and you’ll be amazed to see how well you transform into a whole new person.

Choose wisely

To get the maximum return on your investment of time, money and energy, consider your options wisely. While pursuing an MBA in your home town is a very attractive option and surely has many benefits, attending an international MBA program at a reputable, well ranked institution will provide you with the truly global experience and will help you develop new skills by stretching the boundaries of your comfort zone even further.

One argument for local MBAs would be the professional network they will provide you within your own city. However, if you are a competitive candidate, this should be the least of your concerns. All top-tier MBA programs have alumni all over the world. Most established universities have been around for a long time and offer very large alumni networks of tens of thousands of graduates

Want to go global?

If you crave international opportunities and decide to attend a local university, you could go on an exchange, join a study tour, or complete an international project. Most MBA programs in Canada and the U.S. offers such exciting opportunities. However, if you leave your comfort zone and live in a different country for a year or two (or longer if you decide to work in that country after graduation), you’ll gain a lot more international exposure and will not only take your career global, but will also meet new friends and develop a truly international personal and professional network!

Pursuing an MBA degree is a great investment and if you choose a business school with the right “fit” for your personal and career goals. Before diving head first into the application process, be sure to weigh all your pros and cons so that you maximize the return on your investment of time, money and energy.

The second round application deadlines are coming up soon. If you haven’t yet written your GMAT or began planning your MBA Applications, you still have time to get help and put your best foot forward.
