USC Marshall MBA Interview Questions & Report: Round 1 / Adcom / Virtual
I spoke with Laura Hartman, a member of the Admissions Committee, through Microsoft Teams. This was a blind interview so she was not the person who reviewed my application. Unlike some of the other interviews that I’ve had so far, this one was a little more formal, less conversation outside of the questions being asked. That threw me off a little bit and made me a little more nervous than I was beforehand.
