Hey guys I just got a Interview call from ISB. So hang in there. Its not over till its over.

Congrats and ATB ......

Thanks mn2010....Just got done with my interview. Had it in 3 in the morning because of a goof up on my part...

Hey Kamalkicks, did you get an email from ISB abt the ding? I got the interview invite as late as 2nd feb.

There is one more day to go so better wait...

I finished my phone interview this week. Here are the details:

Skype was not working. So, no video conference. I had dressed up for the video interview, but that didn't happen.

I dialed into the phone number provided.

I was given a word, and was asked to think about it for a minute, and then speak on it for 30 seconds.

My questions were quiet random. Since my profile belong to a very large group of IT professionals with 5 years experience, they asked me very direct questions?

1. What are my current responsibilities and what am I doing in outside India?
2. Why should ISB choose me?
3. They asked me in detail about my CSR initiatives outside work.
4. Anything else I want them to know.
5. My turn to ask them any questions about the school.

They primarily asked me only these questions.
Most of the interview was conversational. The panel on the other side was very slow in asking their questions, and I believe they wanted me to ask more questions, but we ran out of time. We spent a lot of time discussing about what is my USP and why ISB should choose me.

I messed up the answer toward the end. My interview went ok.

My interview was also very similar! Cannot predict the outcome. Now waiting!

I had a identical interview .

Hmm, so does that mean there is a pattern in making ? Does that mean they do not want to know individual aspirations and rather put all of us in similar bucket.

That would be really sad.

Hey guys,
I have not got any kind of reply from ISB.Shud I mail the adcom?

I saw on the forums earlier that they had mentioned 31st Jan as the last day for sending out invites and I got mine on 2nd Feb. So I would say wait and hope for the best. It ain't over till its over-thats what a buddy of mine told me on 1st Feb while I was mourning not getting a call from ISB.

If you are too keen on calling ISB AdCom, You can give it a try but I would recommend crafting your question tactfully. You are still in the race and would not want to come across as a restless guy .

Hope this helps.

Hi,
But the interview calls end by Feb6th right? I waited till the last date.. can i expect something even after last date?

Thanks
Aravind

Tough one!!!. I think you should drop them an email.

For the people who made it last year the result was out on 12th Feb and the dings were sent out on 15th. So for the lucky ones one may not have to wait till 15th Feb. You might have an even better valentine's day.
