Hello guys,
I got the invite for an interview with Foster for the 2018 intake. I have absolutely no idea how to prepare for it. The interview is on 22nd February. What are the usual questions? Should I speak with a student to prepare for it? Any tips would be appreciated!

Thank you!

Mine is on 15th. Talking to current students definitely helps. I would insist on talking to a second year. I talked to a second year and realized there are somethings I could pitch and somethings I could not. Will give you a detail once it is over.

I had my interview last night.

It was a friendly conversation with standard questions like 'walk me through your resume', 'Why MBA', 'positive and negative feedbacks at work' etc. It lasted only 25 min.

I was under the impression that foster releases decisions on single day.

Back after a very pleasant, 45-50 minute interview. I was greeted with "How is your son doing?" which gave me an idea that they have gone through the application in detail. Most of the time was spent on the "Why MBA?" question. There were questions on Leadership styles, and asked to narrate a few scenarios I have faced while playing a manager / lead role.

It felt like they were making sure that I am applying for an MBA for the right reason. Overall a very good experience.

P.S. - If you are driving to Foster, go straight to the N20 - N21 parking lots. The N4 parking lot mentioned in the website is always full.

Oh nice. Who did you interview with ? I ended up parking in N5 and parking lot attendant was nice enough to let me park in Staff parking spot.
I feel like my interview could've been better but lets see.
