My interview was with someone from the Career Center, though I had expected Adcom. She was very friendly and had work experience in my desired industry. The interview was almost exactly 30 minutes.
List of interview questions:
- Tell me about your background.
- Can you tell me about a time where you had to persuade someone to do something?
- Describe a time where you had to manage a conflict.
- What do you like most about Stern?
- What would your manager say is one of your strengths? One of your weaknesses?
- Can you name some companies you’d like to work for upon graduation?
- Looking back at your work experience, what are you most proud of?
- What do you like to do for fun?
- Do you have any questions for me? (I had time to ask only 1 question)
It was the shortest interview I’d had thus far – overall, I think it went well. She told me to stay tuned for a decision within two weeks.
Result: Admitted!
