oof, united!?! jk, one of my best friends is from Manchester and his family have been United season ticket holders for ages! I respect your club a lot, but Spurs are dear to my heart. Good luck on your interview btw, hope to see you in Seattle so we can watch many Spurs victories ;)


Haha, sure! FWIW, I don't 'hate' Spurs like I hate City, Liverpool, Chelsea and Arsenal (reasons different for each :P) - so yeah, I'm OK with Spurs winning. Maybe next season you come 2nd as Moyes bring home his first title? ;)

Somehow I am not able to schedule the Skype interview - some technical problem.
I might have to call the Office up; I'll do it later today.
Thanks for your wishes! I'll keep my fingers crossed for you too :)

I think Moyes will do fine, just needs time.

Yep, I think so too. He inherited a team that is past its peak (not necessarily the players...) and he'll rebuild "his" team in the summer. :)

Btw, I scheduled a Skype interview on 18th Feb. The confirmation email tells me Andy Chen is my interviewer.
I remember reading a few interview reports on this forum; will dig into old posts over the weekend.

Updated the application status of most members from their posts in this thread! We should get a better perspective of the stats now.

Can we expect more invites to be pushed out or do you all think we most of the invites have been sent out already ? Thoughts ?

I got an invite about a week ago, and I saw more than 50 Skype slots available just in the month of February.
I'm sure more invites are coming soon... don't give up just yet. The decision deadline is not that near to press the panic button just yet.
Good luck!

The official word from the Adcom is that the Wait-listed candidates will be reviewed in March and the decisions will be sent out by the end of March!

Hi Paladin, I had my skype interview last night. They had my essays and resume with them. Most of the questions were sort of followup to my application.I didn't receive any unexpected/tricky questions at all.

Why now? Why Foster? Couple of questions on my undergraduate degree. How did I get to my current job? How did i get a particular internship? What do I do for fun? etc?

Good Luck

Hi Kaustubhkul, I was interviewed by Andy Chen. Very personable guy. The interview lasted just under 30 mins including the questions at the end.

My interview was roughly 30 mins. Andy began the interview saying that it would last about 20-30 mins. Just relax. He is very nice.

Hey - just wanted to let everyone know that you can be admitted at any time throughout the application process if you've been wait listed. I was wait listed in R2 and was accepted today (super excited, btw), so my suggestion to all those who are wait listed is to keep constant contact with adcom. It will definitely pay off!
