Interview Experience

Hello everybody who still prepares for an interview,

I am writing this post because there is not enough information about the bu mba interview out here and i had hard time finding out more about the process
So, this is my gift to all of you who still prep for the bu interview

It is a blind interview. This means that the person interviewing you has not read your application. Therefore, you can refer to all your stories from the essays ( it is actually better to do so if they are your best stories)

The interview was about 25 mins.

Here are my questions
Walk me through your resume
Tell me what you want to do and why is it important to you
Why do you think BU is the right school for you
How will you contribute to our learning environment
Tell me about a time when you had to adapt to a change
What did you learn about yourself from this particular situation
What is your leadership style. Give me an example when this style worked particularly well
What is your biggest accomplishment
Do you have any questions
End

This is it
Good luck to all of you

I had the same questions, but they also asked for a time I successfully implemented an innovation at one of my employers, and also asked for a time where being a team member, as opposed to being in the leadership role allowed me to accomplish more. That second question was pretty creative, haven't heard that one before.
