Admissions Consulting
With more than 25 years of experience, the MBA Counseling area aims to guide professionals who wish to pursue an MBA abroad (or other programs, such as LLM, undergrad, etc.). The orientation goes through all stages of the application process: from choosing the program suited to your needs, to preparing for the admissions process for the world’s most competitive business schools, such as Harvard, MIT, and Stanford, among others. Almost 2,000 clients have already been served, with a 92% approval rate and more than 3,000 attained admissions, out of which 76% lie in the top 15 business schools in the USA, and the top 3 in Europe. The guidance on the strategies and the preparation of applications is personalized and individual. In order to offer a full-service solution to our customers, MBA Empresarial has teamed up with Philadelphia Consulting, JCaro and The MBA Wire, and internationally with Veritas Prep, a global leader in online preparation for the GMAT. From this strategic alliance MBA Talent was born, which brings together some of the most experienced admissions consulting professionals in Latin America: Ricardo Betti, Maurício Betti, Júlio Caro, Paulo César Oliveira, Neusa Oliveira and Mateo Chang. In addition, MBA Recruitment and Selection services are also offered to companies that wish to fill their positions with highly qualified professionals, thus closing the professional development cycle of our clients: from preparing for the MBA to accessing the job market.

Ricardo Betti is one of the pioneers in MBA counseling in Brazil. Already in 1987, when I did my "applications" for the MBA, he guided me and eight other colleagues from the same company. As a result, all of us got into top ten schools of the USA: Stanford, MIT, Wharton, Chicago, etc. I have been following the MBA's work ever since, through people nominated by either me or the company that I was director of for many years. The standard is the same: high acceptance rate in the best schools of the USA and Europe.

The MBA Empresarial is the right consultancy for professionals seeking a first-rate MBA outside of Brazil. The application process is very different from that which is experienced with the local schools and makes the candidate immerse into himself/herself, exponentially increasing his/her degree of self-knowledge, and evaluate his/her past, present and future professional development process. Ricardo Betti can help candidates see their strengths and weaknesses, which schools fit into their personal and professional goals, and how an MBA abroad can bring a return.

Ricardo Betti was instrumental in my MBA process and my wife's LLM process. In 2006 I entered the 2-year full-time MBA at the Kellogg School of Management (also having been accepted into 4 other top-10 schools) and in 2007 my wife was accepted into the Law School of Northwestern University. Ricardo helped us throughout the entire process, from the choice of the school ("Matching") to the preparation for the admissions process with the correct positioning of our experiences to maximize our chances in the top-schools. We strongly recommend the services of MBA Empresarial.

The MBA at Stanford was one of the most important and transformative experiences of my life. There I had access to tools, people and opportunities that enabled me to re-signify my career and align it with my life purpose. Ricardo and team were fundamental at this stage, understanding my profile, helping me choose which schools fit into what I was looking for and guiding me in the application process.
A work that is very serious, deep and personalized, which has been transformed into a partnership for life! I am forever grateful! -
My Masters abroad experience was fantastic. I believe that I have had a very significant evolution both in the academic and in the personal sense. The challenges I faced in the two years in Chicago have strengthened me, but have also shown me the importance of respecting different cultures and ideas. However, none of this would have been possible without the work of Ricardo Betti. I was very raw when I received the invitation from Itaú to do the MBA abroad. I would not have been accepted by American and European universities, had it not been for Ricardo with his careful training and his precise directions of step-by-step recruitment processes.

When the bank where I worked offered me a sponsorship for a master's degree in administration abroad, Ricardo Betti was the one who prepared me. It helped me in studying, being accepted, and choosing the university. He is a brilliant professional, perhaps the most qualified person on this subject that can be found, not only in Brazil!
