Oh well !! I know how it feels. The poker face neutral reaction. I tried working yesterday, didn't happen, so decided to take a break. Why don't you apply to NUS, its pretty good and has same cost as ISB. I am doing that too even though I want ISB to happen. Last date 31st Jan for the 1st round.


Even I wasn't grilled much. But sometimes I start thinking that did they not grill me coz they found my answers dumb enough to stop

Hey guys,


I just got an email from the admissions committee at ISB inviting me for an interview on 22 Jan 2013 at Hyderabad.

Can you guys guide me on how I should prepare for the interview. Does it make sense to hire services of companies that help in interview preparation? If so any suggestions?

Also was wondering about the pre-interview assessment, I've heard that you have to write a 100 word essay. Was just wondering about the experiences people have had with this. Do they ask questions based on what you write?

If anyone from Mumbai is interested, would like to meet and hold mock sessions.

Would really appreciate any help I can get.

Thanks!

@navisangha
Do you know by any chance, how many offers are allocated to R2? Any idea how many finance guys generally land up as a proportion to the whole lot in ISB?

Interview invites (when they come, if at all) come in both email id's aye ? I think there was only 1 person in this forum who got an invite only on the first email id

8543

Someone said - Hyd (Mum) interviews seem to happen only on weekends. @Gunnerforever you are Hyd (Mum), correct? Another hypotheses proven wrong or ISB is under time crunch.

8544
@atalb: Yep. I guess thats not completely true. Even I had heard that Mumbai interviews happen only on weekends, but mine is on a Tuesday.
8545
@atalb Thanks Buddy!..And all the best to you as well!

I think its mostly about the availability of the interviewers be it the adcoms or the alumni..Also, with placement season clashing with the interviews its an added responsibity on ISB team.
