Could not have asked for more

Thanks to Experts’ Global’s excellent admission consulting guidance, I received interview calls from Tepper, HEC Paris, Questrom, IE Spain, Kelley, IIM A, and IIM C. Even before I had received these calls, however, I had started preparing for the interviews, with Experts’ Global. I have already written a review for Experts’ Global’s overall MBA admission consultancy but I felt that their interview prep needed a separate one, as it was very thorough and helped me gain clarity on the opaquest part of the admissions process.

Experts’ Global’s interview prep is very methodical. It is a three-step process, which begins with self-learning. As I have mentioned, elsewhere, Experts’ Global has a set of videos meant to instruct their students on MBA interviews. There are 15 of these videos and they cover all of the vital topics, such as etiquette, body language, what questions to expect and how to answer them, how to manage awkward situations, etc.

Once I felt that I had fully absorbed these videos, I moved on to the second stage. The second stage was testing my new knowledge, with a highly detailed questionnaire of the 30 most common MBA admission interview questions. The second purpose of this questionnaire was to help my interview mentor understand exactly what areas I needed to work the hardest on, to improve my performance.

The third and final stage of the interview prep was practical skill development. This was done through a series of mock interviews, with my mentor. As I mentioned above, the questionnaire I filled out was meant to help my mentor understand what my weak areas were. As such, these mocks were designed, specifically, to address those weak areas. Each mock was also followed by a very thorough feedback session.

I found this approach to be exceptionally effective. It cleared up all the doubts I had, about interviewing, almost as soon as they arose. I made very swift progress, my skills rapidly growing with each mock.

The results of this training are self-evident. I cleared the interview stage and secured admits to three schools, IIM C, HEC Paris, and Kelley. At Kelley and HEC Paris I received a full scholarship and one worth 15, 000 euros, respectively. Out of these, I decided to study at Kelley.

I am quite grateful to Experts’ Global. They played a big role in helping me secure this opportunity.
