Has anyone heard back after the first wave of interview invites ? Sent from my ONEPLUS A6000 using GMAT Club Forum mobile app

Based from last year's thread, looks like they started sending invites again 3 weeks after the deadline. I'll have my interview next week and will update the interview debrief section once done.

For info of all, Just received an email confirming that my application has been received in full. Hopefully I am afforded the privilege of an interview shortly. Good luck to all concerned, Cheers!

Anyone got the invites after the fist wave yet?

I received an interview invite two weeks ago and had my interview the following week. Sent from my iPhone using GMAT Club Forum

Could you share your experience with us? I received an interview invite on 5th October, have my interview scheduled on Nov 8th

Hi all, I had my interview yesterday and it was a blind interview (interviewer only saw my resume and not the rest of my apps). It had 2 parts: goals/why MBA and behavioral questions. Part 1 - 1. Can you tell me more about your current role? 2. Why do you want an MBA now? 3. Post-MBA goal 4. Plan B if Plan A doesn't work out Part 2 - 1. Talk about a time where you had to compromise for the team's success 2. Talk about a time where your team was utilized by another team (or another team asked for your help) 3. Was there a time where you had to use your non-work skills at work for a project to be successful? 4. Talk about a time where you had less success as a team leader 5. As Tepper is a diverse, tight-knit community, was there a time where you actively reached out to know more about other people's culture? 6. Based on your research, why do you think Tepper is the school for you? Then around 5 mins for Qs to the interviewer I just realized they asked me a lot of Qs, maybe because I was speaking too fast

I'll post something up on Clear Admit soon, but here are the questions paraphrased (might be missing one or two): TMA = Tell me about 1. Why MBA? 2. Post-MBA plans/career goals. 3. Plan B if Post-MBA plans don’t work out. 4. Why Tepper? 5. TMA a time when you had to compromise for the team to succeed. 6. TMA a time when you did something that others in the team did not want to do. 7. TMA a time when you learned from people more senior than you? 8. TMA your experience working with a diverse team with different backgrounds from you. It was a video chat interview. I could see her, but, unfortunately, my webcam didn't work with CMU's online software, despite it working on Facetime/Photo Booth. So basically, to my interviewer, I was a black talking screen. Interview seemed ok overall, but it's hard to gauge.
