Hi all, I got the email yesterday from Kellogg with the interviewer's information to schedule a time. This is the first one I am setting up, just a few questions:
-Is it preferable to call their work number, cell number, or email to make the initial contact? Even though they list the home phone as well, I don't think it is really appropriate to call them at home.
-I assume they will answer professionally with their name, but how should I address them when I first call if I only have a first initial and last name?
-The email said you must complete your interview within 21 days of receiving the email, is it reasonable to request an interview in the last week or will this signal I am unprepared? I was originally planning on applying R1, but have decided to work with an admissions consultant on my essays and push back to R2 instead.
Thank you!

I'd email as soon as you get the invite. Email the interviewer, be formal in your interview. Dress business formal.
Before the interview, read as much as possible about the school (A-Z), and do some research on quirky parts of the school (I watched youtube videos of CBS follies skits for instance).
Know genuinely why an MBA and why Kellogg and don't script your answers. Be honest, relaxed and make it a conversation. Biggest tip: enjoy the conversation and make a strong case as to why you're different and why you fit.

I'd second that, email sooner than later. At most 48 hours after that email is dispatched to you?
I'd address it to Mr. last name or Ms. last name until they say otherwise.
