Hey everyone,

Do you think there is still a chance to get an interview invite...?

I think we should keep our hopes alive till mid Jan. One of the post in the preceding page mentioned that interview invite required him/her to complete the interview by 18th Jan.

Are you in the ATL area?

I'm in NYC. Will I be expected to fly to Atlanta if invited to interview or do they allow interviews with alumni in hub cities?

My interview invite clearly said "in-person, on-campus" and I'm in the Boston area. They did have interviews with alums available, but they were on a Saturday on-campus.

I believe there was a section in the application where you indicated either on campus or Skype interviews. They also offered open interviews during their super Saturdays but this was also on campus.

I know they prefer people to interview on campus as most if the interviews are done by the adcom.

I attended a super Saturday in September and elected not to interview at that time. I was later invited during round 1 and given the option of interviewing on campus or at an mba fair in the city I live. Since I had been to campus I elected to interview at the mba fair.

I do believe if they are in a city near an applicant they invite to interview they offer that option. Not sure how often this happens though

thanks for the clarification. I already visited campus this past fall (not for Super Saturday) so hopefully I'll be able to interview in NYC.

Hi, does anyone know if there are still avaible interviews now?
I received the interview invitation last night, but when I created an account and tried to request an interview, I found there is no avaible interviews until 1/18(except Saturday, but I live in Taiwan and may not able to have an on-campus interview).
I have written a letter to the school asking for assistance and now waiting for reply.
Does anyone have the same situation like me?
Thanks!!!

Hi, Try to select all available interviewers excluding alumni interviewers. When I registered last night, Jan 9, Jan 10 Jan 14 were showing up as open slots. However, they might have been filled up. However, the school will definitely free up a slot for you before Jan 18, don't worry.

Hey everyone,

So i have an interview tomorrow via Microsoft Lync and i wanted to ask a technical question. Do i join a meeting few minutes before and the interviewer approves me? or do i need to wait till the interviewer does something?

I'm asking this, because with other school i had a Skype interview and it was specifically mentioned that i need to wait till interviewer calls me...

Thanks in advance.

Congrats to all those who got invited to interview. I had my interview on MS Lync 3 days back. Had problems with the system and therefore she called me on my cellphone and we had a phone interview.

Questions were pretty standard: why MBA, why now
She asked me abou my startup and how I was going to handle it a lot with my MBA
I come from an engineering background but have been in strategic marketing right upon graduation. Se asked me why. A few more questions from te resume

She asked me how the MBA would help t short term goals of being in strategic marketing consulting. I told her about the GMSC program.

She asked me how I felt about living in Atlanta.

The interview lasted exactly 4 minutes and she didn't have time to take questions from me as she had another interview lined up. I asked her about GALA and she said she would connect me with a current student about it and that student would help me with it.

Overall I felt the interview went fine but not awesome as it was sort d rushed.

Posted from my mobile device

hselika,

Glad to hear about your interview and your interest in GMSC and GALA - both great portions of the GBS MBA Experience. Though, only 4 minutes?! I didn't realize the admissions office had become so efficient...are you sure it wasn't 40? Just wanted to clarify for others, so they don't expect a super-short interview. Again, big congratulations and I look forward to hearing about your application decision.

Best,
Jon

Hi,

As I had posted earlier, i got an email to resend my essays, since they were unable to access it.
Since the school reopened on 3rd, I'm just wondering if they would have done going through my application/essays by now. Since the decision date is so close, is there still hope for me to get an I/V call?

Of course it is possible that they have gone through my app and didn't like it, but should I mail them and confirm if they have gone through my application?

Any help/thoughts are appreciated.
