The interview took place in a conference room inside the Said Business School. The dozen interviewees were encouraged to mingle with each other throughout the day. Only two current MBA students attended the luncheon, given that they were on break. Surprisingly, almost all of the applicants had flown long distances from Seattle, Los Angeles, Tokyo, Sydney, etc.
Interview time: under 30 minutes
The interviewer was a former headhunter who is now working as an outside consultant for the AdCom. She was knowledgeable, articulate, and friendly to converse with.
We started with brief chit-chat about the program and the community, and then we began the questions.
- Describe a challenge that you have faced, and the steps that you took to find a solution.
- Describe a time that you had difficulty with a co-worker. How did you handle the situation?
- Based upon your application, it appears that you intend to return to your current employer. Could you tell me more about the role that you would take on, and why it would be a good fit for you?
