Chicago Booth Interview Questions & Report: Round 2 / Alumnus / Zoom
The interview was conversational and resume-based and lasted for about 40 minutes.

Chicago Booth Interview Questions & Report: Round 2 / Alumnus / Zoom

Georgetown McDonough Interview Questions & Report: Round 2 / Adcom / Zoom
Interviewed with an adcom member who isn’t full-time, but just helps with interviews, which meant that she couldn’t really answer my questions about the experience, current culture, DEI, etc., but it was still a good conversation. Very Q&A format, she didn’t respond much to any of my answers. 1) Tell... Read more »

UCLA Anderson Interview Questions & Report: Round 2 / Second-Year Student / Zoom
30 minute Zoom with a second-year student. General hellos at the beginning but then right into it (questions below).
