Interview was with alum Gautam Rao in Hyderabad. He’s a nice guy. The building you meet him in is pretty ‘humble’/’down to earth’ which makes a change from the generally corporate powerhouse setting I’ve had other interviews in.
It was supposed to be 30 mins but he said he would allocate 45-60 mins. It actually ran 65 mins. Questions were:
- In six mins run through your CV
- Tell me about what you did at all these jobs
- How was it working for this firm and getting laid off
- Tell me about your travelling
- Tell me about your charitable experiences
- Tell me about a professional failure
- More in depth about what you do at your current firm
- Why Ross?
- Long term Short term goals
- Why MBA?
- Why now?
- And a few mins for me to ask him a few questions
That’s about it really. Hope this helps.
