Interview was with an alumni near me at a Starbucks. The atmosphere was very cordial and we ended up speaking for almost 1.5 hours. While the dialogue was very conversational, the mail questions were as following:
- Tell me about yourself/walk me through your resume
- Situation at work involving analytical challenge(plus lots and lots of probing questions)
- Why do you need an MBA
- What would you have done differently in your job if you could go back(very open ended)
- Questions for interviewer
I could tell that the interviewer really wanted to see if I had done my research on Anderson and really left it open to me for questions. I’m glad I overprepared a question list which I thoroughly exhausted over the next hour. While some of the questions were tough especially around probing and analyzing the analytical problem challenge from work, it was very cordial and conversational in nature. I sent a thank you note followup a few days after.
Decision – Admitted. Good luck to everyone else and thanks for your posts which helped me a lot! In case you are wondering stats were 3.4 GPA and 700 GMAT with 5+ years experience in finance.
