Pre-MBA Job Decision KPMG vs. Lenovo

Hi all. I graduated from an above average state university, think Penn State, Clemson, NC State, Maryland, with a 3.0 in Political Science.

I graduated 6 months ago, and have been working as an Operations Analyst at Credit Suisse, Back Office. I just quit and now have two offers to choose from.

My goal is top 25 MBA 2.5 years from now. I'm aiming for, Vandy, Notre Dame, Michigan, Emory, UVA.

Do I work in IT Product Sales at Lenovo in Raleigh, NC? or Risk Consulting as an Associate at KPMG in NYC?

Given my avg gpa, major and school, I may stand out more with a sales background at Lenovo than working at KPMG. I live in NC now, relocation isn't a big issue, as my primary goal is gaining acceptance to a top 25 MBA. In b school I want to concentrate in consulting and purse that post MBA at Booz, Deloitte, PwC, etc. Thoughts?
