Just got done with my interview + case study. It was about 2 hours in all.

Happy to help anyone who has questions and queries.

Best,

awesome! Would certainly love to hear about your experience. Down to meet for a drink in Singapore ? Rather than typing it out ?

That's great. It would be wonderful if you could share your experience here like any particular focus area in the interview, case study topics.
Thanks in advance!

Typing it might take ages. Happy to connect over DM. We can meet if you're in Singapore and/or speak over the phone and I might be able to help you better.

R1 Offer got.
Background : 5+ engineering in Manufacturing
GMAT : 650 Q49 V31 ( So I'm sure IMD is judging from the whole package or saw my potential)

Schedule
- invitation received 20 days after R1 deadline
- assessment day about 1 month after invitation
- a case will be sent 3~4 days before assessment
- offer got 10 biz days after assessment day
- must decide and send back acceptance in another 10 biz days

Assessment day
- personal interview : schedule could be the day before or the morning of assessment day. casuals questions such as tell me about yourself, biggest achievement , why is that, what's the key factor to bring the success, how your friend, colleague, family would say about your quality/defect, how many hours you sleep everyday
- impromptu presentation preparation : 30 minutes to read a case + hand writing presentation (4 minutes) , hand writing ones will be collected but you can *****keep some drafts and read questions first before starting the case
- Snack time
- group discussion( ~2-3 hrs) for the case sent previously : open discussion firstly to share each own vision and host will pose some questions, challenges from time to time. **** don't be offended or aggressive, just take it as a study group where you just share your visions and challenge each other instead of attacking or winning over something. Remember you are a TEAM and you like everyone at this stage.
- Impromptu presentation : ****4 MINUTES !!!!! RESPECT IT. Some started with a time line for general introduction before heading into the analysis and conclusions. There is no fixed way but it's important to hit the points and show your analytical skills and logics of thinking within the time frame. Find your own style and the methodology that suits you. Don't let others presentations influence yours. But listen carefully if some points you can use. After everyone finished the turn, a group discussion led by host, he would pose some interesting and challenging questions, pointing out our missing puzzles or superficial understanding
- snack time + dinner time
- Mingling time before master class
- Master class
- Mingling time + snack time

It was a long heavy and rich day which I supposed to be every single day during the program.
At the same event, you ll see who you are and how you position yourself in this program; meeting future candidates and professors as well as the ambiance that this program develops.
If it wasn't for this experience, I would be still doubtful about myself and about the program.
There are some other candidates with different interview process ( individual Skype with case , in campus individuel interview only without case )

Welcome to send PM if you need more infirmation or you just want to meet me or you got offers.
Wish you all luck :)

I only submitted my application on Monday. I believe candidates who have applied specifically for India Assessment Challenge will find out on 11th May

The sense I am getting from this forum is R2 candidates are also going to be joining for the assessment day in India. Is that correct?

Accepted! Got a call from Paola (from the Admissions and Recruitment team). I think I shrieked on the phone and turned Paola temporarily deaf!

She asked me my feedback on the interview process and then gave me a detailed feedback on my candidature and performance -- by detailed I mean a full 10-minute feedback on my profile, interview, case assessment, behavioural assessment, energy, etc. I thought she was giving me feedback because it was a rejection but when she said: "and that's why we want to offer you a place.....", I shrieked and said OH MY GOD PAOLA! Thank you!!!

Happy to help anyone with questions.

Best,
S
