Harvard Business School: 1 Year Out [Emily Carrolo]

In this episode, I interview my former LinkedIn coworker and recent Harvard Business School grad, Emily Carrolo. We worked together on different teams, but at the same company for 3 years. We discuss if it is okay to cry at work: where to cry, does crying diminish your power in the workplace, and is it safe to cry? We also talk about her favorite classes at Harvard, and if her HBS degree is worth it. I love this conversation with Emily because it’s advice that I wish I had known when I was 22. I hope you enjoy; let’s dive in!

Hey Cherie, thank you for the awesome and useful podcasts that you put on YT. If possible can you suggest the GMAT prep resources, the time required, etc since GMAT is one of the components of the application procedure? Also, what activities should we do in our career which have a great impact on MBA applications? Please give tips to someone who is a fresh college graduate/ in their pre-final year - and has plans to pursue an MBA not immediately.
