Ross MBA Admissions Interview Questions: Round 2 / Off-campus / Alumni

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.
