I interviewed in late November with a UCLA alum who had graduated in 2008. The interview took place in the alum’s office conference room. His assistant hadn’t told the front desk to expect me and he was a little late, so I saw this all as kind of a shaky start.
Interview questions:
- Tell me about yourself
- Walk me through your career/resume
- Why are you interested in business school
- Why now?
- Why UCLA?
- What would you contribute to UCLA?
He also gave me time to ask any questions. He was very particular about not exceeding 1/2 an hour. Other than the time pressure, it was quite informal and I was definitely surprised with how straight forward the questions were. I wasn’t asked anything I didn’t expect. Not sure what the final result will be – keeping my fingers crossed!
