some thoughts over the no. of applicants. It seems that there is a dip in the no. of applicants for the R1 of ISB. Providing some links below to substantiate the statement
Don't know how to take it, rejoice ( better chance of admit) or be apprehensive ( why crowd is turning away from ISB)
The trend is a bit difficult to understand especially when the applicant pool of EU has shrink due to economic meltdown and applicant pool of US has also gone down considerably in last 4 years.(source : GMAC report) These events should increase the no. of applicants to Indian B schools, but on the contrary it is decreasing.
When the fee is to be deposited in ISB?? It's too early to ask, but I have to check with my finances as well... Can someone help. I know that 2lac has to be deposited first, but when the remaining amount is to be submitted???

Well ISB needs 2 years experienced people, leaving job at such a time may not seem favorable to many people when getting a job itself is very difficult.
i know many engineers who haven't got job yet so its risky affair and risk has incresed

Job Profile:
Have overall experience of 4.3 years (51 months) in Engineering, Procurement and Construction (EPC) based companies supplying capital equipment for steel industry.
Working as Senior Engineer €“ Sales & Marketing (Spare part & Services division)
I have substatially increased the business of the company. (by over 500%)
1) Professional achievements: Baisically I work in a small but a reputed company. I increased sales bookings by over 500%. This was done by continuous market visits, agressive marketing, various cost cutting measures etc. I travel all around India and I am on the road for about 7-15 days a month.
2) Leadership: I was the only person in this dept. (working full time for this dept.; others used to chip in from time to time) when I started with this company. Now we have one more person. So I don't manage teams as such but I can very well say that I streamlined the dept. ,did a lot of numbers analysis, identified potential customers and put up an effective mktg. strategy which we are still following. Before I joined, no one used to take this dept. seriously but now it is one of a very good source of cash flow for our company.
3) Extracurrics - I am very interested in sports. I was head of national level sports tournament organised by our college. I was also football team captain of my colege and continue to represent my company and football club. Nothing from community service point of view though.
@ivyctor2010 oh by the way, since last month I am handling complete project cycle. Initially I was responsbile for sales booking but I am now co-ordinator even for execution, dispatches, documentation etc. Now, I am single point contact person for the customers.
