Standard MBA interview with AdCom in the admissions office. It was very friendly. The adcom’s effort to make small talk made it easy to develop rapport. . Interview went on for about 45 minutes; probably because I have a tendency to ramble.
Prior to the interview she had reviewed my resume thoroughly and had several questions about areas of of interest on the resume.
Some of the questions:
- Walk me through your resume
- Why an MBA?
- Why Kellogg?
- Long term/short term goals?
- What will my business do when I’m gone? (I’m an entrepreneur)
- Lots of questions about my overseas office and managing offshore staff
When it came time to ask her questions at the end we ended up chatting for about 10 minutes about Kellogg. Discussed the Kellogg culture and what makes Kellogg unique.
Overall, a pretty standard interview. Just be prepared to talk about everything on your resume because they will ask specific question about individual items on your resume. Kellogg is a friendly place and the adcom reflected that.
I got the admit day after the decision deadline.
