Hello All

I am planning to apply in r2 and following are the key details about my profile.

I am 31 years old, with M.E in big data and Data Analytics with a cgpa of 8.96.
I have a total 7+yrs of experience in the field of analytics consulting and currently working with Kotak Mahindra Bank as AVP Business Intelligence. I have a score of 615 FE.

I realise that the probability is quite low for admission but should I even bother applying and gor for it next year.

Interviews happen in october. We only get an intimation 6-7 days before. This means that you’re interview can happen anytime in October (you really don’t know if you’ll have an interview or not before end of Oct).

Rest assured Saakshi2407 they will not reject you for this reason.

After all, ISB is as desperate to look for good candidates (such as yourself;)) as the candidates are, to look for good schools.

Good luck!

Is there a strict word limit for LOR ? Like will it allow to submit if the limit is exceeded ?
For essays it wasn't allowing to save.

Hello, hello!

Do any of the experts here approximately when do we hear about interviews (I’m aware they happen in Oct but when does the first interview happen? 1st weekend of october? So then the invite would go out in the last week of september?)

Any clarity would help calm everyone’s nerves. Thanks!

So, from what I heard, you’ll receive the invites by the last week of September.

Yes, essentially, you receive the invites about five days before the scheduled interview date.
