Columbia MBA Admissions Interview Questions: Regular Decision / Alumni

Great experience. Was easy setting up interview–met for coffee. Alumnus was very friendly and informal. Gave me some background on himself, then started discussing questions. Very conversational, and very responsive in answering questions about the school afterwards. Lasted about an hour total.

Questions:

  • walk me through your background and how you got to where you are
  • explain to me what you do at work
  • tell me about a leadership or team experience
  • what are your career goals?
  • why columbia?
  • what do you like to do for fun?
