I attended a ‘super saturday’ in early February that was geared towards female second round applicants. I was matched with a second year student who had reviewed my resume but nothing else. Most questions were standard:
- tell me about your background
- why MBA
- why Ross
- what have you done to explore your career interests
- example of teamwork
- experience when a team didn’t work and how you dealt with it
- tell me about the most difficult/critical feedback you’ve ever gotten
- tell me something about you that is not on your resume
- time for questions
- finally, a last chance for me to express anything else I wanted her
to know
The feedback question was the only one that I felt slightly off-put by. To some extent, I felt like the interviewer was keeping a poker face. She did seem to open up at the end and wished me luck with the process. Generally the student ambassadors that I met throughout the day were very welcoming and helpful, and you could tell they wanted to make sure we had a good experience.
