Darden / Mid-January 2021 interview.
The interview was pretty straightforward since I was expecting the Darden structure. I wasn’t sure if the interview would be with a second-year student or adcom until the interview. It was conversational and I did the majority of talking.
I was told to share my story for ~10 minutes focusing on childhood to today, then was advised to focus on why Darden for the 2nd half of the 20 mins. The adcom asked a few questions after – I was a little thrown off since they were similar to questions on the application, and while I knew the adcom hadn’t seen my resume, I wasn’t sure if I should provide different responses.
One question was around my contribution to a team – what I would bring to my learning team; I was also asked about international experiences and what I’ve learned from those; one question around diversity and sharing my experience and how I would get involved at Darden.
Waiting on R2 decision.
