Sample Essays

Describe a failure or setback that you have experienced. What role did you play and what did you learn about yourself? (500 words)

Working hard towards a goal, achieving it and then realizing that resource crunch will prevent its completion is the worst setback. The disappointment is multiplied because of the goal being so tantalizingly near but just out of reach. The ensuing learning is unforgettable and immediate and holds pearls of wisdom to be utilized when undertaking future endeavors. This is how I perceive of a lost opportunity during the early days of my entrepreneurial experience.

In the initial phase of my start up xxxxxxxxxxxxxx we were seeking expansion opportunities to increase our client base in the Middle East. When we discovered a chance to work with xxxxxxxx which is the largest interior contracting company, providing a complete range of high-end services and turnkey solutions, it was an ideal opportunity.

The project aimed at development and implementation of the Oracle e-business ........................

I headed the team which worked extensively on a Request for Proposal (RFP) floated by DDDD.

............. The fact that irrespective of all our efforts, I failed to convince them about our performance in other countries without having a base presented important long term lessons.

'So close and so far' was the cliché which aptly describes my position. The project would have established my company as a major player and provided us with an enviable presence in the Middle Eastern market. However, this hope was belied but still the loss brought important learning- of matching resources to expectations and capabilities to aspirations. Since then, I have always ensured harmony between these variables before stretching to achieve any goal.

Hi,
I am thoroughly satisfied with my association with Access. They have the knowledge about what each school wants in a candidate. My profile was different and initially I was not very sure if they would be able to help me express myself adequately. But, I am happy that I chose their services. I would recommend Access to others as well.
