I can sense that you have interesting elements in your profile. Your GMAT isn't supportive of a T12 application at this point. Feel free to reach out if you want to chat more: https://bit.ly/GM_AugAcd_Profile_Evaluation

You have good strong profile and score. The tenured career of 10 years and lack of client facing roles could be a slight challenge to enter consulting. It all depends on how you position and package your candidature. - Dee (admissions consultant).

I have handled vendor management activities for the entire refinery as a single point contact for 9000 plus vendors. I see to make up for the client interaction with this aspect of my job

One mantra I suggest to all my candidates is 'never fall in love with your own CV'. The relationship with a vendor versus a client is very different. To a vendor, you are / were the customer; as a consultant, you will be the vendor. Anyways, I am only trying to share some insights, since besides being an MBA admissions consultant, I have also been a management consultant for past almost two decades.
