To the people who got invites? What does the status of your app say on the HBS website?

Wish they would just release all the invites / denies at the same time.. not sure why they play this game.

No status change online. The portal opens up tomorrow for interview scheduling so I assume it will change then!

I bought a house in the suburbs of Chicago at the top of the market. I ended up moving out of state in 2017 and short-selling. I am now interviewing for a VP Accounting role with the mortgage company that got shafted by the short sale. If I get the job offer, can they/will they see this on my credit report? Can they pull the offer due to this? Should I tell them before we advance further?
