I just finished my interview with an alum and it was exactly what I expected it to be… no curve balls. The interview lasted about 40-45 minutes and it was a friendly chat. I guess he had a list of questions on him that he needed to ask, but the conversation flowed organically. Here’s a bunch of questions that were asked:
– Tell me about yourself
– Tell me about your current role at work
– Why MBA
– Why Duke
– Tell me about some constructive feedback that you received
– Tell me about the time you showed your leadership skills (in and out of work)
– What do you think makes a team successful
– What is your role in a team
– What kind of a leader are you
– What are your career plans
– What makes you think this is the right time for an MBA
Overall, a nice friendly chat with a chilled out vibe. No curve balls and no unexpected questions.

Interviewed 9/28. Lots of behavioral questions, including "How would you describe your leadership style", "Can you describe a time you received constructive feedback", "Can you describe a time you needed to depend on someone", "Can you describe a time you had to engage with different points of view and it was challenging or rewarding", "Can you describe a time you faced a challenge of an ambiguous situation and how did you handle it", "Can you think of any challenges you might face during the MBA", "Are there any courses or initiatives you want to get involved in at Kellogg". Interview went for about an hour and interviewer left lots of time to very honestly answer a lot of my questions.
