I'm interested in killing time, so I'm happy to play interviewer if folks are interested. My life has hit a dramatic lull after 6 months of too busy to breath!

Re: GMATClub interview groups [#permalink]
If people are shy about their identities on Skype, we may even try and set up 5 GMATclub skype accounts and give access to the groups before their meetings. Strangers may definitely shy away, and that is perfectly fine - the goal of this is to allow GMATclubbers to practice with other people they respect and can learn from. If we shape the groups in an organized manner you would be able to log in at a given time and expect 4 other participants who know about you just as much as a alumnae at a blind interview. No resumes necessary (unless the group agrees to do that) and no real names have to be used. Maybe the standard first question to a mock interviewee could be "tell me more about yourself" etc. This can be shaped in many different ways.

Re: GMATClub interview groups [#permalink]
I'd argue resumes are essential. I'd also recommend that faux-interviewers talk about 'their time at school' so there's a give and take as in a real interview- give apps feedback on talking too much/little! That said, 57%(or somethin near that) of communication is body language, so it still won't be an ideal setting. Anyhoo, I'm down.

Re: GMATClub interview groups [#permalink]
I think resumes are important too, to formulate questions as representative as possible of the real interview. I would just suggest people change their name and personal info, as well as company/client names. If you worked at Bain, make up a name of a company with a note next to it (M/B/B) so people know what type of atmosphere you're coming from. Same for blue chip F500, make up a name and qualify it with something like F100 CPG or F50 Energy

I'm interested, but central europe time zone. And free time is not a commodity I'm overly endowed with. But still would like to participate - maybe at the weekend if US folks are around in the mornings...

Ok guys here is some progress:

I set up 3 Skype gmatclub accounts with the brilliant ingenious names of:

gmatclub1
gmatclub2
and
gmatclub3

password for any of them is gmat700 (the borderline). The e-mail these go to is skype1@gmatclub.com so any of the admins can set it up if they need to, and change passwords if needed. Also we can create more accounts if necessary.

If there are two users only, you can do video chat. If there are more than two users - you can only do voice conferencing. People can schedule groups of 2, 3 or more and distribute who is who and how they want to do their group chats. Make sure to schedule your chats in the forum so others know if the accounts are in use and can plan accordingly. Also make sure you have Skype installed.
