Calling all Kelley (Indiana) 2013 Applicants!

When did you contact Sarah? by phone or email?

I contacted Sarah on the 18th, as soon as the invites were sent out. The mail I got just said 'To schedule an interview with me in India, please contact our Scheduling Coordinator, Sarah Neggers by e-mail '. I don't see a phone number there.

How did you schedule your interview?

I scheduled it by mail on 17th. You will get your reply, probably, by tmrw morning. Sat and Sun if off there.

I haven't heard anything yet. I too mailed as soon as the invites were off. I am Delhi based.

Do lemme know if you hear anything from her.

Guys, Monday should also be a holiday there.. its Martin Luther King Day.. I'm expecting a reply today..

I got a reply from Sarah saying only afternoon slots available on the 30th. I have asked her to block one slot for me, but havent got a reply or a confirmation for the same.

@ Those who have the interview confirmed - Did you all get a confirmation mail from Sarah..

Where is the interview in Mumbai?? Have you got details of the place?

Taj lands end, bandra

It was mentioned in her mail confirming my interview time and date.

sarah replied. Interview on 5th February, 9:15 AM in Delhi

can someone post a link or something here where I can check which countries they are touring and what their schedule looks like? It seems that all invites here are to indian applicants to interview on location. I wanted to see if I could check Singapore.

There is no link as such. The location/dates for India were mentioned in the invite only.

All the best!

Guys who are getting interviewed in Bangalore please post some updates on your interview experience...

Looking forward to it..

No interviews yet in Bangalore? Mine is at 8:30 AM tomorrow.

Guys, who are interviewed, please share your interview experiences.

Had my interview this morning with Brad. It was fairly straightforward, with him mentioning in the beginning that he didn't really have any 'trick' questions for me

Most of the questions he had for me were centered around my change of industry. I moved from IT Consulting to Marketing, so he asked about why I made the change, what I've gained out of it, what my family and friends thought when I was making the change and if I'm happy with where I am now. Apart from that he asked me about how I did my research for schools I want to apply to, what got me interested in the Kelley MBA, what I hope to gain out of it and where I see myself after the MBA.

This went on for about 15-18 mins, and the rest of the time was dedicated to answering any questions I had.

In the end he explained about what the next steps would be and mentioned that I can expect to hear from them by mid March.

It was pretty much a blind interview. Do remember to carry a hard copy of your resume to the interview, it will be easier for the interviewer to take notes and figure out what on your resume needs more explanation.

Good luck to the rest of you

thanks peejay for sharing your experience!!

Let me begin by saying that IU is a beautiful campus and I am in love with it. Bloomington is a neat little college town with tons of offer; especially great ethnic food, cheap cost of living, etc. I really hope I get in because Kelley is a great personal and professional fit for me.

I had my in-person interview with a 2nd year student at 2pm on 1/25/13. He was nice and very polite. I was asked - to walk through my resume, why b-school, why Kelley, and why now. In addition, I was asked - how do I solve a complex problem and then was asked to give a follow-up example, what would my supervisor say my strengths are, a time when I had taken a big risk (I wasn't very prepared for this one), and definition of a leader (I stumbled upon a few words but hopefully he got my point). In the end I was given 5-7 mins to ask questions. Overall, it was a very pleasant experience. Two first year students gave me a tour of the building and explained to me in great depths why they appreciate Kelley so much, and honestly it all made sense and seemed genuine.

Kelley has a great culture and an extremely helpful set of students, staff, and faculty. I am keeping my fingers crossed and hope that I make it.

Awesome brother.. thanks for the feedback.. much appreciated..
