Thanks for the info eddy.....Maybe they were up for the grab because people might not have selected by then. Though I would love it to be otherwise. Anyway all the best for the interview

Is there any basis on which some people are sent interview invites before others? I had a look at a few old MIT MFin threads here at QN, and this person on one of these was wondering if the strongest applicants receive invites early.

I'm trying to determine if there's a particular underlying logic behind the order in which invites are dispatched.

I don't think that the strongest receives invites earlier. Not for the interview stage at least. They go through applications in tranches and select roughly 1/3rd.

They're going through them in tranches all right, but surely the process isn't entirely random. They must be grouping a bunch of applications together based on some commonality, say the date of submission, or the country/region from which the applicants come, before decisions are made. What do you think, @inlondon ?

I haven't heard about someone who got an interview invitation in London. Also, if you look into invites, they have been previously sent according to interview locations. So I believe it can be based on locations. Well that's what I think and the reality may be different.

Could be the case given that they only had a single deadline this time. which post are you referring to?

 

[whatsisthename]

The next few days should see more updates on the Tracker.

Can everyone please update the tracker when they have a moment? It is easier to keep track of all the info.
Thanks a lot!
