I exactly have the same questions. Can anyone advice please...

harsh2193
I have a few questions regarding the resume.
1) Does MIT prefer a strictly professional resume or do they encourage a creative resume (different formatting, colors .etc., basically the feel of a very simple portfolio).
2) Does anyone have a link to the resume template that Sloan used to give with their online applications.
3) Is it important or advisable to include an "Objective" in the resume?
4) Should education precede work experience in order.
5) Should I be adding skills, traits and interests in the resume?

Thanks for any help guys!

I would and will keep the resume the same for MIT as for the other schools. MIT post-MBA program provides the same jobs as other schools too, so resume must be standard. Here is something that can help you craft a great resume and is free https://www.clearadmit.com/2011/10/limit ... -for-free/

hope this helps

Application sent!

Is anyone else here for Round 1?

This looks very quiet, but I'm sure we'll have more activity when some applicants are invited to interview. Good luck, everyone! :-D

It's insanely quiet here. I guess people are just reading old forums and there's not much to discuss. which is also insane since they changed the app so much.

Does anyone have a prediction as to when we will hear back to interview? Given MIT's app was due so early on, I would assume it should be early October?

Last year the R1 deadline was September 21st and the first interview invite went out on October 20. So, it should be about a month this time too.

Does MIT have a similar approach to the GSB? As in sending interview invites over the course of a couple of weeks?

Does anyone know if MIT usually works geographically? Is that based on work place or nationality?

I think all applicatants are pooled based on location/ethnicity. So it makes sense that Asia is sent at a different time than Europe or Americas

Can anyone else confirm this? Seems very early for Sloan to send out invites based on previous years. Or gmatclub just doesn't have many users based in Asia...
