Hi..

Me too got an interview invitation. Have sceduled the interview on 28th Nov.

What about u Anirban?

Hi,

I havent scheduled the interview as of now. Will do it by the end of the month I guess.
Anyways, keep us posted about your learnings.

Cheers

Hi All,

I got the invitation for interview today. But I am not able to decide the timing. They are 10.5 hours behind us, right? So for me there is no point in taking an appointment after 1:30 (as per their timings).

@Anirban
It seems Katz wants us to call them. I had always thought that it is ADCOM who calls us. I don't understand how am I going to manage an interview in ISD booth.

@pranay_jack
Can you please let me know your interview timing?

All the Best to both of you!!

Nisha

Hi Nisha,

Ya even I thought it was that way. Anyways I have ISD facility at home so should not be that big a problem :-). BTW best of luck to you also !!

Cheers

Hey Nisha,

I am not sure in which part of US is Katz, but google "Current Time in Pittsburg" to make sure of the time difference. Also better get ISD enabled on your home phone. Very few adcoms wil call you. Its you who will have to call in. So that would be good. All the best for your interviews.

I scheduled the interview on 28th Nov 2007 at 2.15pm (Katz time).... so that will be 12.45 am India time..

Also..I had a talk with the admission committee..As per ite mail, my B.E. degree was missing in the packet..Infact the school has not mentioned about the BE degree on the website!.. all they asked was the official transcript..

Anyway..I have faxed my degree to the committee. After having a talk with the committee member, I realised that the councellers are really very helpful..and we can talk to them for any simple query.

Regarding the interview call, I am planning to make the call through my mobile.Recently I talked to them thru mobile only and the clarity of voice was good. The interview may last for 45 minutes..so make sure u have balance in mobile :)

All guys,

Please keep this forum updated..
