I interviewed during a prospective student visit day at Fuqua. There were 60 or so other students interviewing on the same day to wait with. Talking to other prospective students beforehand calmed my nerves a bit.
Not sure if Duke paired interviewers and interviewees purposefully, but my interviewer was second-year student who had accepted an offer in the same job function and industry that I’m working towards. It made making a connection much easier.
It was a very conversational interview. My interviewer started with an introduction and then jumped into mostly standard questions:
1. Tell me about yourself.
2. Why Fuqua?
3. What does “Team Fuqua” mean to you?
4. How will Fuqua’s community help you become a better leader?
5. Why do you want an MBA?
6. What are your career goals and why?
7. What questions do you have for me?
Overall very easy interview. My interviewer was accommodating when I stumbled over one answer.
