The new pecking order
After a rather long wait, INSEAD finally released it's Career Report 2006. Just in time to intice the next round of initiates, even the website has undergone cosmetic changes. I like the effort put in to entrap us and make us salivate.
Around this time last year, the brochures, career reports, websites all seemed to paint this fantsyland with its gates firmly shut. It was all we could dream of, gaining entry to never neverland :) So its tres bizzare to be sort of at the halfway house...not yet in but waiting in line with an assured place. This blog has already started getting queries from 2009 applicants, I'm feeling old.... a definitive heirarchy is in place -new applicants, halfway house bloggers now with clear loyalties to schools we are attending & the current batch of students who we all revver for the inside gup
Should I change status now from applicant to student?
Another interesting titbit - there's a lot of noise around about Indians coming back home, the NRI coming back to roots, India offering the best oppertunities etc etc,... The Career Report though showed that only 18% of all Indians at INSEAD in 2006 came back to homeland. The lowest figure from all the other nationalites... anyone want to analyse the trend?

Don't know if you have the information, but the 18% should be compared with the proportion of Indians working in India Pre-INSEAD.
For e.g. Sweden there's 33% returning to Sweden, however 0% of us were working in Sweden prior to INSEAD.
