Ankit, here you go :)
When's your interview anyway?

Hi guys,
Just got done with the interview couple of hours back. Here are the details I remember:
Mode: Over Skype
Nationality: Indian
Questions:
1) Why MBA/Tepper/now?
2) International experience
3) Any cultural changes faced in working with cross-office team settings
4) Example of issue faced in team work

The questions were slightly more directed towards my profile as I have relatively low work ex. Hope this helps. ATB to others.

On a different note, can someone explain whether Tepper declares results only on the specified date or anytime before that. From what I get from last year forums, it only declares on the specified date but please correct me if I am wrong.


Thanks for that :)

How long did your interview last ?

Did you ask any questions ?

AFAIK, they declare all the results via email at the same time :)

ATB dude :)

Best,
Ankit
30 minutes sharp, I asked questions about trek and mini semester. When's yours?

Had my interview yesterday on campus. Lasted about 50 minutes. Felt more like a conversation. Questions were pretty basic, wanting to know more about your resume and such.

1. Tell me about yourself (then asked specific questions as I talked)
2. Why MBA now?
3. Why Tepper?
4. Teamwork experience?
5. Talk about a time when you made a member of a team do something he/she may not have wanted to do?
6. What can you contribute to Tepper?
7. Short term, long term goals.
8. Leadership?

Hope this helps. Really enjoyed my visit.

I believe all Tepper interviews are conducted with AdCom. I did sit in on a class and I really recommend it. It gives you a sense of the learning environment, which I really appreciated at Tepper. I would also do the lunch with a student and information session. The campus tour was fine, but nothing new or mind-opening except to ask candid questions of a student if you wanted to. And my tour guide was pretty honest.

Yeah I asked a few questions at the end, mostly about my personal fit with Tepper. The interviewer seemed to respond well.
