USC / Marshall MBA Admissions Interview Questions: Round 1/Adcom/Skype

The interviewer was very friendly. Her name was Joanne and she was part of adcom. The interview was a blind interview, a simple affair which started out with some basic questions:

1. So, I have not read your profile, could you walk me through your resume, so that we have an idea about your profile. – Walked her through the resume.
2. Then there were some profile specific questions regarding the choices I had made in my career.
3. Describe your leadership style.
4. What would you change about your leadership style.
5. Why have you chosen Marshall School for your MBA ? What do you hope to get out of the whole MBA experience ?

What would you change about your leadership style was a surprising question for me.

There were some follow up questions regarding why mba and why now. Then she asked me if I had any questions. I asked about stuff that wasn’t on the website and my particular housing requirements. I learned that they didn’t provide much housing within/near campus. And then we exchanged email addresses, and the interview was done.
