ISB will be starting interviews for Round 1 candidates (those who have already submitted GMAT scores) as early as Sep 16, 2018. This is in contrast to the earlier dates for interview for Round 1 candidates (October 1 to November 7) announced by ISB in June. The change seems to have happened owing to ISB's decision to push out the last date for taking GMAT to October 15, which has also affected interviewing schedules.
No further information on city-wise dates etc available yet.
ISB generally gives an advance notice of 5 days before the call for interviews.
If the interviews are to start from 16 Sept. People should expect formal invite today itself !
That means, shortlisting has been, at least partially, completed even before receiving all the applications.
I highly doubt that, at least they will not publicly reveal the interview invite list before the deadlines.
Yes, that does make sense. Maybe they don't start from the 16th, and they go a bit later (say, 20th or later). It wont be the same dates as earlier though. Lets see.
