Re: ISB 2013 Calling All Applicants [#permalink] New post   24 Jan 2013, 04:57
Hi, I am looking for some information on ISB's interview process in general. I have been invited to interview at their Hyderabad campus. Also, I have been asked to reach an hour before the interview for an assessment. The email does not elaborate on the nature of the test. Could someone please share his or her experience regarding the same. I am not looking for questions, but just the nature of the assessment.

Logistic question: I understand, the airport is approximately 40 kilometers from the campus, and in my guess, should take around 45-60 mins by cab. Is this right? Looking for inputs from people, who have done this. I want to plan on my flight times accordingly.

Thanks in advance!

They ask you to write an essay of sorts on a given topic.. this topic would be very generic..
as far as popular opinion goes, the purpose is to check your articulation skills.. not sure though..

u'll be able to reach the institute within 30-40 mins by cab..

Hey..just to access my chances (after a not so good interview)..what is the ratio of invited to interview to accepted? Does ISB give waitlists to a lot of candidates?
