Hi Caeser! Yes, several candidates in the US have received interview calls already

Hi philipemil! Bangalore calls are still being given out, so you may certainly hope for one. Today calls were given to candidates with GMAT as low as 650-680

All the Best!

Congrats to all others who received admits, and all the best to everyone waiting!


Hi - I have been shortlisted for skype interview on Jan 18th and saw that yours is already done. Do you have any tips for Skype interview?

FROM ISB Admissions Blog: Why YLP is Ideal for the Leaders of Tomorrow
The debate over whether great leaders are born or created has been in progress for decades. At ISB, we believe that individuals with latent potential can be groomed to become effective leaders, no matter what their field of specialisation is. Our alumni are testament to this belief. Graduates from ISB have gone forth to hold leadership positions in some of the biggest global brands across industries. Graduates with entrepreneurial mind-sets also establish their own start-ups, defining success on their own terms.

We believe that grooming future leaders needs to start from a much earlier stage than previously thought. Our Young Leaders Programme (YLP) is designed to provide the much sought after learning and guidance, which undergraduates who envision a career in management need. ISB identifies potential leaders through holistic evaluations that consider academic prowess (GMAT scores, collegiate performance), extracurricular activities (to determine what additional skills or leadership quotient candidates can bring to the table), essays as well as references.

The YLP provides students a keen edge through multiple beneficial aspects, the majority of which include the following.

Learning and Mentoring

We understand that students who wish to pursue a career in management often have a lot of questions with regards to the right approach for the best results. At this stage, ideas often require more clarity and direction which are best addressed by industry experts. By participating in the YLP, students get priceless insights and mentoring from experienced leaders across industries. Structured learning sessions ensure that students absorb the critical aspects of management.

Prequel to a Globally Recognised Management Program

YLP students are provided the opportunity to enrol in the flagship Post Graduate Programme (PGP) in Management. Work experience of 1 year 9 months is required to be completed before a candidate is considered eligible for admission to the PGP.  The PGP further equips and shapes aspiring leaders to step out into a competitive world and steer their careers towards success.

Making Connections

A strong network of connections is an extremely important resource for any professional, more so for managers and future leaders. ISB alumni comprise achievers in top management positions across the world and founders of extremely successful entrepreneurial ventures. Students get opportunities to interact not only with alumni and mentors but also build connections with industry peers who serve as indispensable assets for a bright career ahead.

Tuition Waiver

Another beneficial aspect of being a part of the YLP is that students who wish to pursue their PGP at ISB can avail tuition waivers of INR 1 lakh (~USD 1,500). This waiver is in addition to any merit or need based scholarship that the applicant may choose to apply for.

Being part of the YLP gives every student the chance to develop as well-rounded future leaders who can effortlessly lead businesses to succeed. It is the start to a powerful education that will equip them for life.

For Bangalore interviews what should be the last day by which to expect a call? They say 5-7 days so ideally 11th? But then do they work on the weekends? My guess is only till tomorrow.

Just a random update.
I checked the forum for last year, the forum had 759 posts at the end of the season in April and accounted for a discussion of 38 pages.
We are here in January only and we have surpassed that mark and have accounted 766 posts (including this one) :)
And I believe that the contribution has been useful and not random discussion (barring the times of the results :P :-D)

Thanks for the contribution all you wonderful people :)
All the best for everything!!!

Hi Folks,

For all those who have selected Hyderabad as the Interview location, please wait on because calls go on late until 1st Week of Feb'14.

In the interim you can focus on preparing for Interview.

Phil - All the interview calls for Bangalore are not yet completely close, I believe there are few still to come. Wait on
