Hello, I applied in Round 3 and I’m still waiting for interview decision (deadline not due until 19th of july). I have just received a call from a hidden number from a person from INSEAD that started to ask me why I was interested in the MBA and Im pretty sure it was not my AO (IR). I was working so we rescheduled to tomorrow but I did not get any context or contact information... has this happened to anybody else?
Hey! I applied to R3 too, pretty much on the last day June 18, (Jun 17 my time). I'm waiting on my interviews as well. I had a few calls from INSEAD marked as "Unknown Number" on my iPhone, on similar topics about asking about interest. This is just their admissions folks reaching out to people who had registered for an event or started an application. They of course wants to boost applicants for metrics as well as candidate choice, so its pretty normal I've had it from Wharton and Berkeley too.
I've heard from an Alum that the AO (mines VF) will reach you via email and send you contacts for Alums, and then set instructions there for the first approach.
