Hosam et all,

I have been invited to interview by HBS, as well! I need to arrange the date with the alumn within 3 days.

I was assuming HBS would ding me, especially after MIT and Stanford did so for R1, but here I am, invited to interview by HBS (and I'm 30 years old!).

Anyway, let's keep our fingers crossed.

Cheers. L.

Congratulations!!!!!

I can only imagine how you guys feel at the moment. I am confident that you guys will 'clean up' during the interview too!


Does anyone know when HBS is done granting interviews though? I have heard that they will continue to grant them up until March. However, I read from one forum chat that they will cease after the first week of Feb. . Anyone have any idea?

Thanks a lot, guys! I'm just terrified of being grilled by HBS. Yet on the other hand, I'm thrilled to have reached this stage.

I haven't scheduled the interview yet. I'll let y'all know how it goes.

Cheers. L.

I just finished my phone interview and I really don't know what to feel. It was very focused on my work and leadership experiences., strenths, weaknesses...

Very little about anything else. No introduction and no curveballs. He asked me some pretty detailed questions about how I would differentiate the funds at my private equity firm (long-term goal). Not sure how much he liked my answer. All in all there was very little feedback since it was on the phone.

He ended by saying that he thought I was a strong team-player and have the potential for becoming a strong leader, which is hopefully a good sign.

He then asked whether there was anything else I would have liked to talk about. I said that I wanted to talk a bit about my hobbies and interests and at one point I became too phylosophical by comparing football teams with corporate teams and management influences yada yada, at which point he politely shut me up :)

34 days to go!!
