Notes:

WOULD LOVE A PODCAST FEATURE! Canadian currently living in the Bay area. Experience so far is in tech, few years at deloitte and a couple of years at a major tech company. Short term goal is to pivot functions into marketing. Long term goal is to be a c suite exec for a high growth tech company focused on Healthcare or education (think headspace, khan academy). 3 questions :
1) do I need to cast a wider net with my school selection? or retake gmat?
2) How do I go about being convincing that marketing is what I want to do if I don't have any experience so far? My story currently is that accounting doesn't directly add value to the end product or consumer, and that's what I am trying to go towards, a function that adds tangible value.
Thanks!!
