Recruiting Question: How do Companies Choose Who to Interview at MBA Programs?

So I've been told by current/recent MBA students that recruiting starts basically from the get-go when you arrive on campus. But since you don't have any kind of GPA ( and I know some schools have you interview "blind") how do MBB/BBs etc recruit? Do they just pick people with high GMATs, prior IB experience....Etc. Thanks! Bit confused on this.

 

Good to hear - I'd imagine it's about how you spin yourself, etc. I'd be doing an MBA to break into IB, so I was worried about competing for Associate slots with kids who already had IB experience.
