Alum interview.
-resume
-why mba, Ross
-why should Ross select you
-questions

I had a shaky start. As soon as I reached interviewer's office, I was ushered in and we started the interview. Was bit disoriented after travel. Took 5 mins to get my pitch and confidence back..
Worrying factor: real short interview, like on-Campus or tele. 30-35 mins. The alum ints. I 've heard of seem longer. Don't know what to make of it. Very few cross questions. I had planned concise responses for Std. stuff, sparing time for areas that intr found interesting. Had too much to detail everything. I was asked to elaborate only two specifics from my responses.

Could something have made me happier? Yes, Better start. More questions.

All the best for next week's interviews

Hi guys. I forgot to post my application status to this thread.

I applied for Ross R2.
Got my invite last Jan 20 and had my interview Jan 31st. It was alumni interview in an Asia.

hey guys, visited / interviewed this past week. will post on impressions later. met a mba2 who turned down hbs for ross.

also my interviewer asked me what other schools did i apply to, any idea why they ask that?

Congrats GoBruins!

Was your interviewer the MBA2 that turned down HBS for Ross, or was that someone else? If it was your interviewer, I could see why. If not, I could imagine your interviewer was just curious. I'm sure not all of them have the same understanding of what type of questions will freak out applicants, haha. They're not all superpolished interviewers. As an example, I sent a TY note to my MBA2, and he responded by saying "if you, for whatever reason, don't get accepted, I'd encourage you to re-apply." I think it was supposed to be uplifting as in, "you're great for Ross, don't let this year's results dissuade you!" But it just made me worry that the for whatever reason part was a lukewarm review from him! Anyway, I'm sure your MBA2 didn't mean anything by the comment.

Congrats GoBruins on the interview invite!!!

Am curious - why did your interviewer give up HBS for Ross? $$$ or particular career goals for which Ross equipped him/her better?

Great news!

I wud suggest the on-campus one.

Hi,
I called up the admissions at Ross and reached the reception. The lady mentioned that the last date of sending invite is one week before the final decision date. However, Soojin's blog mention two different dates; mid and end of February. There are so many versions, I think the only way is to rely on your inbox and spam folder.
Good luck to those who are waiting.

does the invite get posted on the application page in addition to their e-mail?

i don't think i missed any e-mails but don't want to committ a mistake either. still waiting for the invite.

No.Atleast I don't see it.

I dont think so ... you get a link in the email that you have to follow to schedule the interview. At least in my case, the application page is not reflecting interview update.

Called the admissions office...invites going out till Feb-19. Good Luck, all!

gotcha Class2012 and rao. hope i didn't miss their e-mails....

Thanks for sharing! One more week for those of us still waiting. Good luck!
