Hi All,
I am Siddharth,a fresh applicant .I applied in Round 1 and got interviewed yesterday on Skype.The interview was taken by a second year student who was nice and we had sort of a conversation about my work experiences etc.However i had certain thoughts I like to share

1 firstly , since these interviews are being conducted by second year students who might not be directly a part of the admissions team,how do they judge candidates.

2 secondly,since for International applicants like me for whom it is virtually impossible to sustain the fees without any scholarship,what is the method used to award scholarships,is it these students who recommend the students for scholarships or is there a different parameter.Are the chances better for candidates who have selected to have in-person interviews when the school comes on mba tours(since here it is the admissions team who come ,mot students) , I am in a different city I couldn't manage to meet the admissions and hence had to take a Skype interview.

please advise ,


Thanks ,
Siddharth

Congratulation Vasant! I too am a re-applicant and I would be submitting my accomplishment essay in Jan deadline.

Did you create a new application? If not, did you write the 3 essays along with an accomplishment since last application essay?

Thanks!

Hi Adi,

I remember talking to you a few days back. I just submitted a re-application essay of about 2 pages and an updated resume. Nothing else.

Finished my interview today.
It went really well. It started half an hour early because the candidate who was supposed to come before me was absent.
It was very conversational and a 2-way interview.
The questions were the usual ones you would expect - Why MBA? Why now? Past experiences, ST/LT Goals, etc.
The interviewer also gave me an opportunity to talk about anything that I had failed to mention in the rest of the interview.

Now, the wait begins...

Cheers All :gl

How did it go?

The impression I got of Jim was that he is a pretty amiable but sharp guy.
