Finished with my interview yesterday. Pretty exhaustive compared to the other interviews that i have given so far. Abt 80 mins in total.
Began by giving his background. ( was a double MBA !!!)
Tell me about your background and what was your thought process in taking major decisions that have affected you.
Why moved from a company X to Company Y. ( had moved from real estate dev to real estate PE)
what challenges you find in your job after one year and after two years.
Ethical dilemma.
Two leadership instances.
Professional and personal failure.
A time when you did not live up to the expectations of others
Why not MBA in India? Why not IIMs? Why not ISB?
Why MBA? Why Wharton? Why now
What do i bring to the table?
Extracurricular. had mentioned stock trading so which sectors you like and why?
LT and ST goals? Why sector agnostic PE? Which sector if all you would like to choose?
Undergrad academics?
I then asked a few questions and he was very forthcoming in answering them. Overall a phenomenal experience just meeting a Wharton alum.
Not sure what to take out of the interview as i guess its always conversational.
Best of luck to evryone else interviewing.
