I wanted to share my Kellogg interview experience. I was interviewed by Yana, an admissions director. She made sure that I understood it was a blind interview. Questions are as follows (mostly in that order)
- Walk me through your resume highlighting your career progress.
- Tell me about your leadership skills. My example was a time when I managed multiple teams from various companies. She wanted to know how I worked towards getting all of them on to the same page.
- Tell me about a situation where your team failed and how did you work towards improving the situation. What are your learnings.
- What are your career goals both short term and long term.
- Why do you think Kellogg will help you.
- Some info about my international workex and if I experienced any culture shocks.
- What do you do for fun ….
We chatted a little about Shawshank redemption and some interesting experiences from my trip to South Africa. She has been there as part of some admissions trip so we connected on that aspect.
Finally, I wished her a Happy Thanksgiving and took leave. In retrospect , I felt my answers could have been much better and I wish I brought in my community leadership. Keeping fingers crossed.
Hope this helps.
