Chicago Booth Interview Questions & Report: Round 2 / Alumnus / Off-Campus
Took place in a hotel lobby off-campus. Very pleasant interview – alum graduated from Booth a few years ago and it was very much like a conversation. It was clear that the alum wanted to know me better – I had sent a resume and he’d clearly read through it... Read more »
UVA Darden Interview Questions & Report: Round 2 / Adcom / On-Campus
Opted for on-campus interview. I was told by a friend (2nd-year Darden student) that the interview would be random and blind (either adcom or 2nd yr student). Greeted by the adcom and led to his office. Asked if he wanted a copy of my resume and was told hearing me... Read more »
Stanford GSB Interview Questions & Report: Round 2 / Alumnus / Off-Campus
I don’t think I’m adding much new information here with this report, as my interview was very similar to all the other reports here. I called the interviewer the day I got the invite and we set up a time that worked with his schedule in the 7-10 day window... Read more »
Michigan Ross Interview Questions & Report: Round 1 / Second-Year Student / On-Campus
Interviewed at Michigan Ross in Ann Arbor. Broken into halves in a total room full of 70 or so interviewing students. I was part of the second group so we were first spoken to by various student led organization leads. When it was time for my group’s interviews, we were... Read more »
Michigan Ross Interview Questions & Report: Round 2 / Alumnus / Off-Campus
My interviewer was an alumnus (19′) and was very nice, open, and friendly. Since we work in the same building, the conversation started off naturally and was a good ice breaker. The first intro was in Japanese, interview was all in English, and QA was in Japanese. It was mostly... Read more »
Michigan Ross Interview Questions & Report: Round 2 / Second-Year Student / On Campus
I interviewed on campus with a 2nd-year student. The interviews take place in two sessions in the morning – a blue round, and a maize round. I was in the first round, so I interviewed around 8:40am. My interview was very conversational. We chatted for about 5-10 minutes before even... Read more »
Yale SOM MBA Interview Questions & Report: Round 2 / Second-Year Student / On-Campus
Questions asked: Please tell me a little more about your current role. Why do you want an MBA? Greatest success? Biggest failure? What will you contribute to Yale SOM? Notes: The interview itself was very conversational. The interviewer, a 2nd-year student, told me that it was blind. Only thing that... Read more »
Chicago Booth MBA Interview Questions & Report: Round 2 / Alum / Off-campus
It was a blind interview with an alumni, who graduated from Booth almost 10 years ago. She was working at a pharmaceutical company, so this helped her resonate with the examples I gave while walking through my resume. The interview was much more detailed that I expected and she probed... Read more »
UCLA Anderson Interview Questions & Report: Round 2 / Second-Year Student / Skype
The interview was relaxed and conversational. It was a blind interview, as the interviewer only had access to my resume. The questions followed a pattern that seems consistent with other reports. The interview began with the interviewer detailing some of his background – he had a CS degree, worked in... Read more »
Emory Goizueta Interview Questions & Report: Round 3 / AdCom / Skype
My interview was with Heather Holland, a member of the Admissions Committee. She started the interview by introducing herself and gave a brief overview of what a blind interview is. She was nice and friendly right off the bat. Questions I was asked: 1. Walk me through your resume. 2.... Read more »
UCLA Anderson Interview Questions & Report: Round 2 / Second-Year Student / Skype
Very chill interview, with the student asking me to walk through my resume and tell all of my “why stories” (i.e. why an MBA, why UCLA, why now, why your current career, etc.). We spent about 20-25 minutes on me and spent the last portion of the interview asking him... Read more »
Michigan / Ross MBA Interview Questions & Report: Round 2 / Second-year student / On Campus
I attended the Interview Day event that ran from 8am to 3pm.

The interview itself with the MBA2 was casual,... Read more »
