How the All-Inclusive Package Works
Step 1
Get Started with a Free Consultation
The first step towards your MBA dreams is a free consultation with a Fortuna coach. Working together on your applications is a partnership, and we really care about getting to know each other! We’ll discuss:
- Your goals, target schools, and overall admissions strategy.
- An honest assessment of your candidacy and your value proposition as it will be assessed by business schools.
- Answers to your burning questions about the MBA application process.
- Recommendations on which Fortuna coach is the best fit to work with you, given your background, target schools, and preferences.
- The opportunity to schedule a follow-up ‘fit call’ with your recommended coach to ensure the right chemistry and alignment.
Step 2
Application Launch & Candidacy Strategy
- Through a deep dive into your profile, we develop a clear, cohesive candidacy positioning that highlights your unique strengths while mitigating any weaknesses.
- We outline a strategic timeline and attack plan, enabling you to stay on track.
- We guide you through an in-depth reflection process to define your career aspirations and post-MBA goals.
- We help you confirm your target schools, considering your ambitions, strengths, and potential program fit.
- We guide your school research to ensure you can speak with confidence about your program fit and how the school can help you achieve your goals.
- Every touchpoint with a school matters—from online info sessions, campus visits to networking with alumni and faculty. We guide you on effective outreach, leveraging extensive networks, clubs, and school interaction opportunities.
- We help ensure that all your interactions reinforce your interest and make a lasting impression on the admissions committee.
Step 3
Crafting & Refining Your Application

- We’ll ensure that each essay aligns with the school’s specific culture and admissions priorities.
- We guide you in selecting the right recommenders – those who can make the strongest case for your admission.
- We help develop briefs and key talking points for recommenders to ensure alignment with your overall narrative.
- We provide a step-by-step plan to keep the recommendation process smooth and timely.
- Admissions officers spend just 30 seconds scanning your résumés –make it count. Our MBA Résumé Doctor works with you to craft a results-driven, compelling document that highlights leadership, impact, and key accomplishments.
- We ensure your résumé reflects your career path and answers the questions the admissions file reader has about your candidacy.
- Many top MBA programs require pre-recorded video responses or live video responses as part of the application process: we’ll advise you on what to expect.
- We’ll help you prepare so that your videos deliver strong, authentic responses that reflect your personality and key messages.
- At a critical mid-point in the application process, a senior advisors – an expert in your target schools – conducts a comprehensive review of your full application package.
- This fresh perspective ensures that your key messages are clearly conveyed and that all components of your application work cohesively together.
- You receive strategic feedback to refine your positioning, strengthen any weaker areas, and optimize your overall application before finalizing.
- Your public social media channels and overall online footprint should reinforce – not undermine – your candidacy.
- We review your overall digital presence focusing especially on your LinkedIn profile to ensure it aligns with your application strategy.
- Every word in your application matters – we scrutinize all details for consistency and clarity.
- We advise on complex questions about academic transcripts, extenuating circumstances, presenting career transitions or gaps.
- We’ll ensure that when you hit submit, you do so with confidence, knowing that you are presenting your best possible case for admission.
Step 4
Mastering the Interview Process
Interview Coaching & Mock Session
- We’ll prepare you for school-specific interviews, including behavioral and team-based formats.
- We conduct mock interviews, simulating real admissions settings and providing in-depth feedback.
- We help you refine your delivery, confidence, and messaging, ensuring you sound natural and compelling.
- You’ll get personalized tips for handling tough questions, managing interview anxiety, and making a lasting impression.
Step 5
Post-Application Support
Navigating Decisions & Next Steps
- Submitting your applications isn’t the end—and it’s not the end of our support.
