My alumni interview was held in the alumn’s office and lasted approx. 1 hr.
- Walk me through your resume.
- Why MBA?
- Why Wharton?
- Tell me why this is the best time for your MBA
- What are your post-MBA goals?
- Discussion about options for my short-term goals.
- How does your work experience with your current company fit in with your long-term career goals?
- Some talk about what I’m currently doing in this city, the politics between the US and the country in which I’m currently living, and discussion about previous work experience.
- What weakness in your application would the Admissions Committee be concerned about? [The alumn divulged that this is a required question by Wharton’s AdCom staff.]
- Do you have any questions?
The alum was extremely friendly, put me immediately at ease and offered further help, if needed, with any further MBA questions down the road.
