Quick different from other school. No self introduction. Straight to your career goal and why you think you are capable of accomplish it.

Had my interview with a second-year student. It was super long, took about 1hr 45 minutes, probably the longest MBA interview I have ever had. But it was very conversational and had a lot of follow up questions. So be thorough with your story. Some of the questions which I remember are: 1. Why I have chosen to be in the sector in which I work currently (I had a non-traditional background) 2.Why MBA? 3. Short-term and Long-term Goals? 4.Specific skills that you plan on gaining from MBA? 5.Strengths? 6.Weakness? 7.Classes and Programs in Fuqua that will help you? 8.How is your leadership style? 9.How was being a diverse team/diversity helpful to you? 10.What do you think is the most important as aspect of building relationship with people? 11. A follow-up question about a particular experience in my professional life that I shared. 12.A time when you had problems communicating? 13.What does DQ mean to you? 14.A particular instance where you had to deal with ethical issue? 15.Why Fuqua? 16.How will you contribute to Fuqua? 17.Any questions for me? My advice will be to have a good knowledge on Fuqua, its curriculum, its culture and values.

Had my interview with a very friendly 2nd year student (like DUH!!.. its tuck!) Brief Intro rather than a typical tell me about yourself then walk me through your resume 2 follow ups on my resume. and another follow up on one of the follow up questions. why MBA? Why now? why tuck ? Biggest achievement at your work place. Feedback given and feedback taken. Something for the Adcom Questions for the interviewer.

My Interview Very short interview. 25 mins. Standard questions. Tell me about yourself Why mba Why NUS Why not continue at your current job? (I work for an MBB) Leadership experience, style, obstacle

Hi everyone. I just had my interview, and here are my takeaways. In regards to the questions, I didn't get the typical, 'Walk me through your CV/Tell me About yourself', 'Why an MBA?' or 'Why Oxofrd?'. The questions were all about my experiences and some situation-based questions in relation to the answers I gave. The interviewer was really lovely, and it was more of a conversation than anything else. If I could advise anyone, it would be to just come prepared knowing who you are, why you're doing the MBA and how your professional experiences prepare you for the MBA and your future career. Also, make sure to smile and ask questions! =] Good luck!

My interview was somewhat different from any of those shared here. On a number of occasions, it felt like the interviewer was trying to trick me and was impersonal and unfriendly. Considering how it went, I was not surprised by the result. It was with a 3rd party interviewer, as all KF interviews seem to be. They didn't really describe their connection to UNC and began asking questions after a 30-second introduction. - Tell me about yourself. - Why MBA? - What professional achievement are you most proud of? - What has helped you navigate differences in opinion in the workplace? - Tell me about a time you had to deal with conflict at work. How did you resolve it? - What is something that you've recently learned about yourself? - Is there anything else that you'd like to share which we haven't covered? The interview ran for 32 minutes and I wasn't allowed to ask any questions.

Similar interview to the other debriefs shared. Interview went for sharp 30 mins. - Tell me about yourself - Short-term and Long-term Goals - Why Kenan-Flagler. Why MBA now? - How will you contribute to the development of UNC? - TMAT challenging situation of handling a team - TMAT your biggest achievement - TMAT your received constructive criticism - Do you have any questions for us Some of these questions are follow-ups based on prev. answers. ===== Got the admit call from the interviewer on 9th Dec.

Both the alums were very friendly and interviews were conversational. common questions were asked like tell me about yourself. why hec? why MBA? why now? any/most significant leadership examples. aside from typical questions, focus on your own profile and make a list about what could be asked. Basically, they wanted to know about me as a person and how it fits with HEC. keep the topic of presentation interesting and engaging. Use your strongest element/topic even if it's related to your job. GOOD LUCK TO ALL APPLICANTS!!!! I'd be happy to help if anybody has further questions. DM me.

Hey Folks! I have been selected for ISB R1 admissions! A huge thanks to Arijit from @CrackAdmission. I reached out to him with very little time left for interview prep, and he really came through. We did a mock interview where he pointed out a bunch of areas I could improve. Honestly, I was all over the place, but Arijit helped me craft a solid narrative for my goals, and it all came together perfectly. In the end, about 60% of the final interview was based on what we had worked on in those mock sessions, so it made a huge difference! If anyone here is looking for help with their application or interview prep, I highly recommend reaching out to Arijit/@CrackAdmission. It could be a total game-changer!

Here's a rough debrief of the written test and the interview. ***Spot essays*** 1) You are a team lead...working in a project..have to submit before the deadline well in advance because of some competition prep..team members came up with short cut solutions..however may have issues in the project later...what are the challenges...what would you do? 2) You are having a group presentation...a classmate had problem with the approach & expresses it during the presentation..team wants you to pitch in & handle the situation..how would you do it without compromising integrity? ***Interview*** <Panel consisted of 3 alumni> 1) Introduce yourself, work, likes.. 2) Asked about each role in my career progression..what is that role & what exactly did you do in that role? 3) Suddenly about extracurricular..learnings from it? 4) What do you bring to the table at ISB? 5) Biggest challenge I faced? 6) Why your short term goals? 7) Why product management? 8) Why MBA & why ISB? 9) Did you discuss with your manager if you can become one without an MBA? 10) After 20 years, what would you have achieved? 11) Why do you think you got so & so promotion? 12) What would you do if you graduate from ISB & can't make it to your desired industry? 13) What did you most like in one of the extracurriculars? 14) Few more follow up questions based on the answers i gave to above questions 15) How would you contribute to alumni after graduating? 16) Any questions you have for us? Overall, the interview was conversational and I received the admit. ISB interviews are always filled with follow-up questions, making it unpredictable & highly dependent on the panelists. While the traditional advice of knowing your application & resume inside out still holds true, my short advice is to be ready for follow-up questions on everything you say. Most of the questions I faced didn’t come from a predefined list. They were entirely based on my responses during the conversation. So, if you're hit with a curveball question, take a few seconds to think before responding. Trust me, pausing for 4–5 seconds(Don't take too much time though :)) to gather your thoughts is far better than blurting out the first thing that comes to mind, especially since you "will" face follow-up questions. You can DM me for any assistance. I will try to respond whenever i find time. Hope this helps. All the best!!

The interview was conducted by a member of career management team- a senior career coach- Kate Barnes.

A conflict with colleague: how did you deal with it 5. Anything that people misunderstand about you- a follow up question to it 6. Any example of innovation/ idea you suggested in a team 7. Can you name 2-3 firms that you’d like to join for your short term goals 8. Any recent case study that you think can be discussed in class 9. Time when you faced a setback, how did you deal with it 1-2 more questions were asked And few minutes were given to ask questions to the interviewer at the end (I asked 2 questions) Date of interview: 11.11.24 Date of acceptance: 28.11.24

Tell me about a time where you had to handle an unplanned situation. What will you contribute to olin? I also researched my interviewer and was able to find a common thing we both share and we spent a great deal of time speaking about this. My questions was related to how my interviewer was able to use the teachings and resources in her current role. I feel very optimistic for the Booth and Yale SOM decisions next week.

The questions are pretty standard i havent found any repository for the same as the question is new this year. Two problems i faced that i recommend to focus on: 1. I faced challenge in reading the question in 10 sec, as the question was pretty long, font size small and laptop screen slightly away(to capture me well), recommend using larger screen or increasing font in browser. 2. Be concise, as the 60 sec time for answering the question will finish very fast. Practice answering some random questions in 50 sec as you will take 10 sec to read the question and another 10 sec to thinking and structure your answer.
