FROM IESE MBA Director's Blog: End of Year Ranking Summary
Now that the year is winding down, let’s look back at how the MBA Program has been doing in the rankings in 2015. Rankings take a very peculiar and necessarily non-exhaustive view at a program. And...

I'm not sure about the questions, but the person you wrote recommendation for me told me that there were two questions - one on how the applicant is and the other on the best piece of advice you have given to the applicant...

Don't remember from which site did I find this, but the questions are:
1. How do the candidate's performance, potential, or personal qualities compare to those of other well-qualified individuals in similar roles? Please provide specific examples. (300 words)
2. Please describe the most important piece of constructive feedback you have given the applicant. Please detail the circumstances and the applicant's response. (250 words)

hope this helps:)

I'm in!

Congratulations on your admit. Would you mind sharing your profile and your experience throughout the application season with IESE please. I'm applying in R2. But also realized that a few of them who applied in R2 have already been accepted/waitlisted. Are decisions out on a rolling basis?

Thanks.

Sure. I'm a 26 year old Indian citizen working in Investment Banking in Singapore. 3.5 years of work experience. Computer Science degree from NUS, Singapore.
The application experience is pretty much like any other top MBA school in that its rigorous in its selection process. IESE also has an added step (although optional) of an Assessment Day after the 1-1 interview which is basically a whole day of group discussions, presentations, etc.

Round 1 results came out just like 3 weeks back so I highly doubt that Round2 decisions have already been released. Furthermore, IESE is on Christmas break for the last week and this. Decisions are usually announced after the Assessment Days and in some cases after the 1-1 interview in case the student can;t make it to the AD.

Hope this helps

Wishing everyone a Happy New Year!

Would anyone who has already applied to IESE let me know what to mention under the 'Title' field of our Undergraduate (Bachelor's) Section

For example, the fields are filled up as follows:
Major Field of Study: Engineering
Degree: Bachelor
Specific Field of Study: Information Technology
Title (please write the equivalent in English): ???

Hi,
I'm am an Indian engineer with 3.5 years of work ex in the analytics industry. Post MBA I would like to get into the strategy consulting for a top tier firm. I'm trying to better understand the post MBA placement scenario at IESE business school and would like some information about the same. To start with here are some of the questions I have:

1. Who are the top recruiters at IESE and for what functions do they hire graduates?
2. What is the placement scenario in general for international applicants (especially Asians or Indians)?
3. What opportunities are available for those who want to get into strategy consulting?
4. What % of students get jobs in Asia and what are top industries that hire them?
5. Is it true that majority of the Asian students end up going back to their home countries for jobs post MBA? If not what is the trend?

Thanks in advance for any information!
