@abhi.iimb@elflord I have a total of approximately 3 years work experience out of which I spent the last 6 months in my current project and the rest 2.5 years approx. in another project. My query is that does IIMB consider 6 months as enough time for my lead/manager to evaluate me in order be my referees or should I stick to getting references from my old project?
In my opinion, 6 months is decent enough time for a person to know things about you if you had worked closely on a day to day basis. so you can get references from your new project as well.

hi!regarding the reference part, does it work something like...i give their details and they get a questionaaire sort of thing from iim b which they have to fill. if yes then how do i know whether they have filled it on time?
they will get to write a brief note about you and regarding your positives and negatives. You will be notified by email once your referees send their recommendations.

Got mail frm IIMB... But didnt get a letter yet as it was mentioned... any1 else yet 2 receive the letter reg it....??

@neha1340 you may use competitiveness. Looks most apt given the other alternatives
@abhi.iimb :

they have stated that the last day of submitting the application is 23rd. do the referees have to submit it before 23rd too??

During my internship, I worked under a research guide in an NGO, who knows me closely. He is currently pursuing his PHD and not formally associated with the NGO anymore. How much does it make sense to ask for a recommendation from him?? HELP! HELP! HELP! @TTR_IIMB / @elflord

Does the referee has to submit the referral the first time he opens it or can it be submitted later?

@TTR_IIMB Thanks!
@TTR_IIMB/@elflord /@abhi.iimb i had worked with my corporate HR on re-structuring the organisation and also on the Corporate responsibility division of my company which helps the NGOs and socially backward, differently abled people. But now she is on Sabotical and will be moving abroad in a couple of months. Will it be ok to take recommendation from her?

In my opinion, Though he is not associated with the NGO at the moment, it is fine if you believe that he worked long enough with you to provide a reco for you!

As i mentioned earlier, in my opinion it is completely fine to get a reco. from her. Clearly state the nature of the realtionship and furnish correct contact information while providing details about the referees.

Hi seniors,
What format should the X and XII marksheets files be uploaded? Is it mandatory that they should be of pdf format or is a jpg scanned copy enough?
Thanks

Has anyone received their invite letter?

@soumyabasu1388 What is the last date for the reference submission for my boss/manager ? I mean after I give his/her contact details.

Hi. Can anyone help me with the following queries:1) I have been working since mid-July 2010 and changed my job in mid-September 2011. Now if I put in my work ex as - Company 1 from July 2010 to September 2011 and Company 2 - September 2011 till date, then July 2010 will be completed as a full month and September 2011 will be counted twice. Can this get me into trouble later?2) I am a chartered accountant and my IIMB form already mentions stage wise marks as per the CAT form. However, the final marks column is blank and I cannot even change it. Should i be concern about this?3) Can i give a reference of a client for whom i conducted audits in my previous organization?Thanks a lot for your help
Can someone answer query 2..pls
@facemash @abhi.iimb Pardon me if this has been answered, but could you please let know what all is asked in the questionnaire. i just convinced the Managing Director of my company, thinking its a regular 1 page affair. I hope he would be able to give a reasonably good 'reference' with the questionnaire:)
@AcU I am an aspirant just like you. So tagging me won't help much. But, I've heard that there are 1-2 questions on ur strengths and weakness to be answered in 1 line rest is rating based.
