I did.
I did so-so at best.
They kept it easy and light though, I was just too darned nervous.
How did it go? How did it go? I'm anxious to hear buddy!!!
A mixed bag I think.
On the one hand, I had great answers for some questions. On the other hand, I was nervous - a side of this is that I tend to look behind someone or focus on something else when answering, so my eye contact was likely a bit poor.
Things that went well:
Why an MBA, why now, why kellogg, What do you like to do in your spare time?
Kept the conversation light and easy. He didn't "grill me".
Interview lasted about an hour and twenty minutes, which could be a "good thing". Or could be a reflection of overly long winded responses that weakened my application.
Was able to "connect" on marketing issues.
Things that went poorly:
Weak eye-contact on my part.
Probably clear I was nervous, though I imagine most people are. I was fine until it actually started.
Some answers were likely a little long winded and overly verbose.
It was likely clear that I struggled with one or two questions
Overall Assessment: B-
Strongest element:
I think I conveyed my passion for Kellogg well.
Weakest element: Not a single question about my actual work experience - that is, nothing like "what is it that you do?" or "tell me about a leadership experience" or anything along those lines. This is probably my greatest concern.
