Sorry for the delay. Here it is:
One Word: Orange-Wrote about spirituality and Lord Hanuman
Interview was scheduled at ISB campus at 12:00. Reached there at 11.00 AM. Interacted with a few applicants. One CA, 1 Businessman, 2 from Deloitte, 2 from Infosys. Got recognized as Ankur from Gmatclub by some of them and they thanked me for my job. Asked them to post the debriefs also, but do not see any.
Felt good and pumped up.
Interview Panel had all the alums A1(2005), A2(2008), A(2010)A1: So Ankur You have taken your GMAT multiple times, applied to ISB in 12, 13 and now. You seem to be pretty sure about doing an MBA. Why MBA?A1: I know a bit about consulting Explain a bit about what do you think consulting is.A1: You live in Hyderabad from 4 years, must be well aware about it. Let me give you a case to solve. Number of petrol pumps in HyderabadStarted off with total number of people, number of people with vehicles and then lost track.
I could have done much much better. This is one particular question I am not sure at all about how I performed.
A2: What if you do not get into Business consultingA2: Find out the best ERP package for Grasim Industries. How?A2: Wouldn’t you want to know about the concentration of the strength and the number of offices.A2: What if you are a manager and you have to choose a team for client. Who would you choose.A3: Tell us about your job responsibilities.A3: Challenges at JobA3: Typical day at work.A2: Why do you need to give time. Is it a job?A3: What will you do if you have highest priority work and someone shouting for help at gmatclubA2: How did you improve from the last time you appliedA2: You have written in your essay that 3 years after your MBA you want to be a Management consultant. Why this gap?A2: What will you bring to ISBA3: Any question for usLeft satisfied barring the case study answer.
All in all it lasted for around 30-35 minutes.
Apart from the guesstimate question, I do not think I could make a drastic change in the answers I provided.
Leaving all to the 15th of November. Lets hope for the best
All the best to all!!!
