Interview lasted exactly 30 minutes and was conversational. I was asked a lot of questions in spite of the short interview duration, mostly because there were no follow-up questions. Other than the usual walk me through your resume, goals, why MBA, why Wharton, why now questions, I was also asked about my work experiences in detail (what do i like most/ least, tough teamwork experience, most significant accomplishment, time when i worked around someone, leadership style and example). The interviewer was interested what I do outside work and excluding my community involvement (activities pursued for fun). We concluded by talking about weaknesses and what other information I would like the adcom to know about me.
