TACKLING THE MBA ADMISSIONS INTERVIEW
2

• Getting a call for an interview at B-school
  clearly translates into you having cleared a
  preliminary round of selection. Well done!
  Thinking about the interview is enough to get
  your nerves worked up. However, if you are
  prepared well for the interview, you will breeze
  through this too.

• The interview can cause concern due to various
  reasons you may not be comfortable with
  face-to-face discussions and prefer written
  communication on the other hand, you may also be
  worried about the interview, thinking about how
  it could be a make or break ground for your
  admission process. All these fears will be
  alleviated if seek help of the best MBA admission
  consultants.  Here are some ways EdElevate
  suggests you to prepare yourself to tackle the
  MBA admissions interview

4

• List things you think you may be asked Prepare a
  detailed list of things that you may think the
  interviewer could ask you. Do a thorough analysis
  of your Resume. This will give you pre-formulated
  talking points on topics that may come up during
  your interview.

5

• Do a mock interview Call someone whos inspired
  you to do an MBA (or someone whos had extensive
  corporate experience) for this. Allow them to
  prepare for this interview by sharing your
  write-ups and open-ended answers that you
  wouldve shared with the B-school. This will
  allow the interviewer (albeit mock) to plan their
  own questions and line of thought. This
  interaction will be enriching, provide you
  insights into possible questions, and also tell
  you about what to need to prepare further for
  tackling the real interview.

6

• Connect with alumni During your application
  process, you wouldve surely got in touch with
  the B-school alumni to know more about their
  experiences. Keep in touch with them and ask them
  what their experience at this interview was like.
  However, it is key that this information is
  sifted and then internalized since no two
  opinions of the same experience are the same. A
  question that may have disarmed them may be your
  area of expertise and you may face it.

7

• Be clear and objective about why you want to
  pursue MBA A question almost always asked is why
  you would want to take up the course. Your answer
  to this should be well-thought out and portray
  objective goals that you wouldve set for your
  career. A clear vision of the future as you want
  it is impressive.

8

• Prepare to remain composed You may be nervous
  before the interview but remember to calm
  yourself in the flow of things as the interview
  begins. Youre already there and the wisest thing
  to do would be to give it your best. All those
  years of planning and study would come to
  fruition here.
