Scheduled my interview with Katie Lloyd on 21st Jan, 2014. Has anyone here been interviewed by her? If so, how was the experience?
HI,
You must have got initially a to-do list. In my to-do list it shows GMAT score initiated and Interview initiated. I am not sure why it shows as such. As i understood, we cannot do anything about the interview task but i am confused about GMAT score. I already asked GMAC to send the official score. They did report it in december.

Any idea?
They have to attach your GMAT score report to your file. If you think they have your score, send them a note and someone will get it done.

Just submitted my application... How to check the completeness of the application????
In the next few days, you will receive an email from the admissions committee containing logins for your OPUS account. Once you log into OPUS, you will be able to see if your application has any holds... aka an incomplete application piece. Once all your holds have been cleared, you will receive an email from the adcoms verifying that your application is complete.

I received the mail from the payment website GOIZUETA BUSINESS SCHO (gateway@linkpt.net) straight away after I paid the fees with message 'Receipt from GOIZUETA BUSINESS SCHO'. However I have not received confirmation from the school.

I got an interview invite last night! This came as an extremely pleasant surprise as I was starting to believe that I have been dinged.
Nevertheless, I am still a bit concerned. I have been asked to schedule an interview within 24-Jan, but I guess the final decision date for R2 is 20-Jan.
It would be great if someone could shed some light over this matter.
Also, this is the very 1st MBA interview I will be attending, EVER!! So, some amount of guidance regarding questions, attitude and basic tips will be immensely appreciated.
P.S. - Indian, residing in India.

Congrats! They do cut it pretty close don't they? Will you be visiting the campus? I had my interview last week and it was also my first b-school interview. Overall, it was a nice experience. I interviewed with Kate Piasecki and she was very friendly. The first few minutes were just ice-breakers about the weather and my trip to campus (I'm in the U.S.). The actual interview was pretty basic stuff about why I want an MBA, questions about my work experience and undergraduate experience. One thing I noticed was that she was really good at asking follow-up questions based on an answer you just gave. For example, she asked about a group project I completed in college and I mentioned a team member who didn't do much work. Her next question was how did I motivate the team. This happened a few times and I thought it made the conversation very fluid.
For preparation, I wrote down talking points for potential question topics like leadership, teamwork, work under stress, etc. I tried to have 2-3 examples for each and I thought that worked out pretty well. I feel like as long as you took the application process seriously you'll have good answers for the questions. Also, right after the interview I found a place to sit down and took notes about her questions, any responses I could have improved upon, and any nervous mannerisms I might have shown. As this was my first interview, I wanted to use it as a learning experience.
This is just one experience from a new interviewee and I'm in the states, so I can't speak about remote interviews. There were no big surprises and the interviews are basically just a way for them to hear you explain your application verbally. Good luck!
Hey Thanks Zumbido for the experience. I am thinking of applying the same strategy here. I won't be visiting the campus and I have opted for the web-based interview through skype. I am absolutely NOT exposed to video conferencing and I hope I don't struggle to place the cam properly .
It's good to know that your interview went well and I hope it was fairly conversational. I have scheduled mine with Katie Lloyd way past midnight my time and so I am making a habit of staying up late. To be honest, if it's just about verbally expressing my application attributes, I guess I will be fine. However, I hear that's not the case always, and I am quite nervous.
Thanks again anyway, and wish me luck! Are you an R2 applicant?
