I’m planning to apply through R1 for ISB. I’m working with my father currently although before this, I had to switch through a number of places because of the covid situation and a number of other factors. Does changing through companies a lot affect my chance? I feel it does but when hiring was limited, I had no option. And rather than sitting and waiting for the best company, I kept on working somewhere or the other to increase my learnings. But I’m pretty anxious about it. Since Feb’21, I’ve been working under my father for my family business.

It is a tricky one but you need to really think through the story and reasons behind each change and finally, how does your current role align with your goals. If not in the application, alums will definitely ask about it in the interview. Your chance to prep the answer well

Hi MananS4G, What does colleges mean exactly by international experience? Is it the global experience that we have gained by working with global clients, understanding their requirements and their market, interacting with global teams, etc (Even if we are staying in our country). Or it is specifically (or just) working outside the country of the college?

It’s working outside the country.

Is there a consulting service for ISB PGP application that charges hourly rates? I am a reapplicant (rejected after interview last year) and I want to pressure test my career goals & application strategy with an admissions consultant. Thanks!

Hi shubhamind90,

I am an ISB alum, CO15, and have been guiding applicants for the last 5+ years.

Please reach out to me at [email protected] to have a chat regarding your goals, reapplication essay, and the differentiation essay.

Cheers and Best of Luck!

Which ISB is good mohali or the Hyderabd one ?

They say both are same, placement takes place in one campus alternatively and no one from interview panel asks your ISB campus location. So it’s the same in a way.

So if we clear, then they will give campus by themselves?

You have preference option in application but final decision is taken by ISB

I have a total experience of 11 years. 3 years post engineering. And 8 years post mba from a tier 3 institute. Post mba experience is in administration. How well this profile will be taken? What should be the target gmat score for getting a call?

How much weightage does GMAT score have for second round of ISB YLP? I know it’s not disclosed, but I just wanted an idea. What is a student is good and isn’t able to score let’s say a 700+ on gmat?

Would appreciate if someone could comment on this, thanks!
