My Columbia Business School interview was in a coffee shop with an Alumnus that graduated MBA 2018. The atmosphere was relaxed but a bit noisy.
Questions
- Why MBA
- Why now
- What happens if you don’t get into Columbia
- Walk me through your resume.
- How will I engage with the Columbia community, what clubs I would join.
- Challenges I face during work.
Interviewer seemed disengaged and didn’t know much about Columbia’s “recruiting” events for prospective students. Also didn’t know much about the Healthcare program though she was a part of it.
Advice
Read cues and notice when you are oversharing / too enthusiastic and need to back off.
