Sorry to everyone that got dinged, I don't want to find out how that feels.

Anyone want to share how they are preparing for the interview? I am happy to work with others on this, more than enough room for all of us on this forum at Booth :)

For those of you interviewing off-campus, did anyone receive the details of their interviewers and interview dates yet? Any updates from those in India?

I'm in the US, but I got the contact info for my interviewer shortly after selecting my interview preference... Maybe it takes longer if there isn't an alum readily available near you?

Similar situation here. That two month wait seems excruciating.

FROM Booth Admissions Blog: Student Stories: Meet Nobu Kawai

Nobu Kawai is a second-year student at Chicago Booth who previously worked in Tokyo in risk management for the Japanese commercial bank Sumitomo Mitsui. He came to Booth to study international resource development because he wants to switch his function to operation management when he returns to his company post MBA.



For Nobu, moving to Chicago with his wife and young daughter has been a valuable cultural exchange that allows him to share his traditions and perspective with his fellow classmates. From hosting a sushi lunch on campus with the Japan Club to organizing a student trip to visit his home country on break, Nobu loves the way people at Booth are curious about different cultures and enjoy open exchanges around diverse thoughts, viewpoints, and backgrounds.

Watch Student Stories: Nobu Kawai




We have lots more Booth stories to share. See our latest videos here and stay tuned for our upcoming story about Brittany Henry who is pursuing her passion for impact investing at Chicago Booth.


Regards,

Kate

Same question and valid for all the schools that offer alumni or student interviews. How does one know if the school knows that the interview is done?

My interviewer did mention that he would have to fill out an assessment form or something by Nov 12th. After that, he will be done and he won't even know my final decision that the school send out on Dec 8th

Interviewed Applicants: Mind sharing your interview debriefs with us here?

My interviewer admitted she had only interviewed 1 other candidate in the last 20 years. A lot of her questions, id say about 80% were behavioural. She was going through a list provided by Booth, which contained about 50-60 questions, and was picking the ones she seemed to like. Despite that, I felt like the interview went quite well and she was really attentive and interested in what I was saying. Cant really remember specific questions, many were about challenges, failures, leadership, teamwork, strengths & weaknesses.
