The interview was pretty long. It started with basic tell me about yourself and then proceeded with ‘tell me about a time’ kind of questions. Few of the questions were as follows:
- TMAT when you had constructive feedback.
- TMAT strengths.
- TMAT leadership and leadership style.
- TMAT conflict resolution.
- TMAT you lifted a team.
- How would your colleagues define you?
- Weaknesses?
- Why Booth?
- Contributions?
- Goals?
My questions were mostly standard, but they were phrased in a complex way and were back-to-back. Very little on resume. The interview was quite long and it was just not ending. The interviewer was quite introverted so very few words or remarks after my answers and mostly it went like question answer question answer. Surprising element was the phrasing of questions, even though they were standard, but the interviewer was asking more so in a story form. What didn’t surprise me was the length of the interview, I was expecting it to be quite long. The school is quite academic in nature and requires a lot of convincing for them to consider you compared to some of the other schools in the same league. My advice would be just develop some stamina for long interviews, it can be really draining when it goes in a question answer question answer format.
