My interview was with a second year student who was friendly and professional. The interview was relaxed and comfortable. The interviewer had a copy of my resume and was familiar with it. However, he was unfamiliar with my field, which meant I had to briefly explain my industry’s landscape and my position in it during the initial “walk me through your resume” question.
Additional questions:
- What are your Post-MBA career goals?
- Why MBA and why now?
- Tuck is different than other schools, especially in terms of location, why do you think it’s the right school for you? (Read: Why Tuck?)
- Q&A
The interview was brief approximately 35-40. Overall the interviewer was professional, warm and relaxed – a good experience. One caveat: virtually every student I spoke with at Tuck mentioned (in one way or another) that because of the workload and the small community’s emphasis on extra-curricular participation, first-years tend to get only 5-6 hours of sleep per night.
