My adcom person confirmed it was a blind interview. She said files are reviewed by 3 people (student, ad com person, director of admissions) for a decision. The interview was 35 minutes. She said we would have time at the end for one or two questions from me. Her questions to me:
- walk me through your resume
- short term and long term plans and how the MBA fits in
- what is your experience working in teams
- how did you handle a challenging team situation
- tell me about a time you had to be a leader
- what critical feedback have you received at work and how did you changed from it?
- why do you want to go to Kellogg? how would you get involved at Kellogg?
- how do you spend time outside work/outside the classroom*
-*I thought at first she was asking about hobbies but I quickly figured out she was looking more for formal extracurriculars like volunteer work, although we talked about hobbies later, too.
She was nice and it was very conversational, not a “stress interview” situation. She was also an alum so we talked about her Kellogg experience at the end.
