I had my Johnson (Cornell) interview last night, which lasted for 40 minutes. It was on the phone with an ad-com representative, and was a blind interview. The questions were pretty routine:
- Why MBA, why now, what are your post-MBA plans?
- Discussion on your career to date, what roles you have had, skills learned etc.
- Example of a time when you had a conflict in team and how you reacted to it.
- Example of a leadership situation – where you had to convince a colleague or team about something they disagreed with.
- Why Cornell? This I feel is the most important aspect for Johnson. They really want to see how motivated you are to attend Johnson, whether you’ll be a good fit, and whether you actually have an idea of what they prize themselves on
- What 3 adjectives would I use to describe you to the Admissions committee?
- What student clubs are you interested in?
- What Immersion Program will you join?
- Any questions for me?
