Hey @bondtradercu

So disclaimer firstly: I work for mbaMission! (Thank you for considering us.) There's a lot to think about when choosing an admissions consultant....here are some things I'd suggest asking any firm:

What kind of writing/editing experience do your consultants have when you hire them?
What is your firm’s hiring process like?
What kind of initial training do your consultants go through? How long after a consultant is hired do they get their first client?
What ongoing training does your firm offer its consultants?
If your consultants don’t know the answer to a client’s question, where do they go to find it?
Are your consultants full time or part-time?
What outside organizations endorse your company?
What additional services are included beyond application consulting?
Do you find “success rate” to be a meaningful metric?

Admissions consulting can look like a commodity product, but I think these questions will help you assess each company at a deeper level.

At mbaMission, we are all experienced writers and editors, and we're all MBAs as well. We work for the company full-time, which means we don't have to worry about working 9 to 5 (or later!) somewhere else and then coming home and reviewing essays.

Applying to business school can be a stressful process. Firstly, you have to work full-time and get all these applications in. Then, the waiting and the interviewing and the school decisions can be pretty mentally taxing. It's helpful to have a partner through this journey that you trust and enjoy working with. My recommendation is that you set up free consultations with a few firms and see where you feel the "click."

I hope that helps! We would love to know what you decide so please keep us posted and let us know how we can help.
