What is the word/ character limit for the short answer/ additional information questions? There is no such information given on the portal.

I think it was pretty much the same as for the other essays too. My recommendation, just copy an extraordinary long text into the field and then the error message will tell you how many characters are allowed

My interview is scheduled for the end of this week. I've actually already spoken to the interviewer when I was initially interested in the program so I'm a bit more relaxed.

Is it just one interview or will there be an interview after it with the director? other school I applied to, I also have to be interviewed with the director of the program.

I can confirm it should be one interview. (At least it had been so for me too)
Good luck!

Thanks for the answers!

A final question. Will there be a case study during the interview?

In my case there was no case study. ESADE really puts its focus to find out whether you as a person (personality, values, mindset) fit into the vision & mission of ESADE.

I definitely agree.
Furthermore, they focus on your critical thinking rather than your business knowledge.
