Here are two questions I've received recently through the Talk2Dee function:

"
What are the most important criteria in assessing international applications?"

We're looking for the same qualities in both international and domestic candidates. We think we have a good grasp of international educational systems and the opportunity sets for university graduates across a spectrum of countries. We understand the different nuances in both the concept of "leadership" and the role that extra-curricular activities play in university and community life. We don't know everything (!!) so it's up to you to present clear and complete responses to our application questions.

"What is the difference between applying in round one and round two?"

Not much. We'll make roughly the same number of admissions offers in each round. While we have a smaller number of applications in round one, I will generalize and say that they historically tend to be a very organized and eager group who want to know where they stand as soon as possible. Round two offers the opportunity to polish the application again over the winter holiday break. Sometimes candidates will wait until round two in order to report on a recent promotion —that's understandable. Our advice is to submit your application when you have had a chance to devote serious and sustained effort to making it the best case for admission.

*********************************

THE NEXT BIG THING?

Every decade or so, one "hot" sector captures the imagination of MBAs looking to be the Masters of the Universe - that big payday or that job that would be the envy of their classmates and peers. It's this glory seeking, trophy hunting and status-seeking mentality that drives the herd mentality within the MBA jet-set.

In the 60s, it was advertising. In the 70s, it was conglomerates. In the 80s, it was bond trading. In the 90s, it was dot-coms and venture capital. And in this decade, it's private equity/hedge funds.
