My heart skipped a beat when I saw a LinkedIn notification that someone at MIT Sloan viewed my profile today.

Interview by invite only. They send you gnomes carrying white silk scrolls with golden embroidery and request your RSVP. That's why it's taking so long.. the gnomes are on strike demanding higher wages.

Hehe just kidding sorry :P They will mail you if you're invited or otherwise.

Lol ShephardCommander - Thanks for the much needed humor.. . :)

Have others been noticing humorous bytes on Livewire for Stanford? Guess we should soon start that for MIT.

Sorry iamnvm, but that's a fake. MIT explicitly said they will send gnomes and NOT leprechauns

You guys are too funny. I have been following the GSB guy(gal?) on Clear Admit, I must admit his/her posts are definitely helping to ease the wait.

It sounds like we should know by the end of next week if we're invited to interview (Sloan). Does anyone know if gnomes will be sent for candidates not offered an interview? Just want to know so I can keep an eye out.

Hahaha the post with Steve Harvey cracked me up!

Yeah the Stanford Livewire is hilarious! Someone posted lyrics of Drake's Hotline Bling and I realised how apt the words are to our current situation.

"Ever since I left the city, you got a reputation for yourself now
Everybody knows and I feel left out, Sloan you got me down, you got me stressed out"

And now the song is stuck in my head.
Also the dance moves. Someone make the dance moves go away.

Please.
