There was no icebreaker and we got straight into the interview, which made me a bit nervous, especially during the first question. The interview was mostly focused on my goals, had behavioural questions and some follow-ups based on my responses.

Questions Asked:

  • Tell me about yourself.
  • Short-Term Goal?
  • Why MBA?
  • Why Kellogg?
  • Leadership Style?
  • Time you stepped up as a leader and struggles you faced?
  • A follow up question on that something about if I’ve continued to do that.
  • Experience working with a diverse team?
  • Plan B if Product Management doesn’t work out? (I mentioned Strategy/Consulting)
  • Why Strategy and Consulting? (I talked about the transferable skills that I have)
  • What do you hope to gain out of these roles, and not just why you would be able to get into them?
  • How would you contribute to classes?
  • Plan B if you don’t get into MBA?
