I too got invited. I was just looking at their interview schedule. They have posted many names of who will be conducting the skype interviews or atleast this is what I could understand from the list. Any idea if choosing one over the other has some pros and cons?

Just got an interview invite. I am very surprised - I submitted my application only 2 days ago! Anyone else in the same boat? Should I go back and read the email again? :shock: :roll: :!: :?:

Yeah I submitted 2-3 hour before deadline.

My application status on the portal still says Submitted. Did you guys receive any mail saying that application has been processed? Or is it the same for you?

Oft asked question on resumes but asking again for clarity.

Tepper's specifics on resume to have a standard font with size 12 AND double spaced, makes my otherwise 1 page resume run into the second page.
Although Tepper mentions 2 page resume to be acceptable, do you think it is really desired?

A bit of crisis here!

I think you've misread the instructions.

The resume is supposed to be 12 pt. font, but not necessarily double spaced:

"Your resume should be 1-2 pages highlighting the achievements you have made in your professional career,
using a standard (i.e. Times New Roman or Arial), 12-pt. font."

The essays, on the other hand, have to satisfy both requirements:

"There are two required essays for all Tepper MBA applicants and should be double-spaced, using a standard
(i.e. Times New Roman or Arial), 12-pt font."

Yes! I had got that wrong initially, corrected it. However my resume still crossed 1 page!

This is incredible. They are too quick :)
Got the invite. Scheduled in on the 14th of Oct 2014 with Emily.
Let's see how it goes.

All the best to all. Atleast here at GC, they seem to be very generous in rolling out the calls.

P.S. I realized that I did not upload the essays in the desired format :P

Is there a 2nd wave of interview invitees or those not invited must consider themselves as dinged or WLed?

Are the emails coming in batches? Or did they just come together and you all posted it at different times? So should I consider myself rejected since I didn't get the invite yet? Really hurts having 2 rejects in one day. :'(

As far as I think. We all got the mails at the same time. But I would say its too early to loose hope.

In the same boat but I looked at the thread from 2013 and it appears that there was a second wave of interview invites at the end of October, which makes sense because they don't really declare the results until December mid.

In short, keep your chin up :) and fingers crossed!

Congrats to interview shortlisted candidates.

A quick question to all invited folks. Does the invite specifically say you have been shortlisted for Round 1?
Or it is a general mail asking to schedule a call to know more about you and Tepper? I got the general mail from adCom today. Wondering if this is the real deal?
