I’m also curious if there’s any advantage/disadvantage or difference between interviewing with an adcom member vs a second year student. I really thought interviews in previous years were all conducted by the adcom.

Interviewing with admissions member is more consistent because they are professional interviewers and it’s part of their job so the emotions and personal side has less impact. It’s more impersonal but it’s more objective

I have heard a lot more alumni disaster interviews than admissions. I think those are the worst. Current students likely ok. But I feel admissions director is the best option, feel free to disagree 😇

I totally agree that's why I was having the second thought scheduling my interview with a y2 student haha

But looking through their website, Foster mentioned the interviewers are all assigned randomly from a pool of adcom and current students. Though it was a little sus that I was assigned with someone who almost shared my identical professional background and post-MBA goals, even worked at a same company. I guess my question is whether it's truly random and if so, how can I even begin to ask for a interview with a adcom at this point lol cause I have to email the adcom to reschedule

usually you have to play the cards you’re dealt, and it’s too much of a hassle and request to change the interviewer. You have to come up with a reason and quite often will be shoved to the very end of the queue and often given very little other consideration since you’re asking for something that the school may consider it’s too much of an ask.

However, you can use this opportunities to your advantage sometimes. You may run into someone who is likely very friendly. Can I make the interview more enjoyable and less stressful.

Unless you feel that this person would make the interview unfair or will impact it negatively, I would probably stay put.

I guess not particularly changing a interviewer request but rather a date/time change. But idk if that's a good idea either lol

It’s totally fine to change the time and date and hopefully that will trigger the change of the interviewer as well.

You just need a good reason

It's not a rejection until it's a rejection.
