Haha, no. No manufacturing for me!

If you don't mind, did you apply for the weekend or evenings?

I am just about to finish my application and submit before the deadline this friday, 19th Feb.

Will the late submission impact the application outcome in any way? I am applying for Saturday Summer 2016.

I had a Skype interview (international applicant) with an alumni.

The questions were the typical ones, nothing new (just google a little bit and you'll see), although I struggled with a few questions like "what are the aspects of leadership you struggle the most with?" or "name three strengths and weaknesses" (I thought this question was outdated). Or "name 2 aspects that your colleagues would highlight from you". Be prepared to share you resume in a way in which not only describes "what" you did, but "why" you did whatever is in there.

Other important thing to mention is that the interview dynamic was really friendly and easy-going. The interviewer would give me permanent feedback to my answers (such as "oh great") and help me keep the answers flowing, not like some job interview in which you don't get any sense of how well are you doing.

I think that the interview is oriented in getting to know you at a more personal level and how likable are you, not trying to evaluate your skills or your work experience. I read somewhere that the main question that the interviewer should ask him/herself is "would I enjoy drinking a cup of coffee with this person?"

good luck!

I just noticed that the AdCom have changed the Essay prompts for the PT program. The old essay prompts were,

Resilience. Perseverance. Grit. Call it what you will....Challenges can build character. Describe a challenging experience you’ve had. How were you tested? What did you learn?(450 words)
and
Leadership requires an ability to collaborate with and motivate others. Describe a professional experience that required you to influence people. What did this experience teach you about working with others, and how will it make you a better leader?(450 words)

The new essay prompts can be found at https://www.kellogg.northwestern.edu/programs/part-time-mba/applying/deadlines.aspx

I had my interview at the Weiboldt hall with an adcom member today. I reached pretty early because I had arrived by train and had a lot of time to pass. Spent that time reading magazines, reading about Kellogg on the website, walking through the hallways at level 1 and 2 (Mez), eating food at the cafe on the 3rd floor etc.

Sharply at 2pm, Joanne picked me up from the lobby into her office, on the way we talked about weather and small chitchat. The interview was blind, and all the questions she asked were standard fare, and everything as I was expecting. I do not remember the order, but they were...

1. Question about undergrad choices
2. Career progression from undergrad till now ( Walk me through your resume?)
3. What do you like about your current job? Why current employer?
4. Do you manage a team? Team size?
5. What is your leadership style?
6. Describe a situation where I brought a change?
7. Describe a situation where I led an initiative?
8. Describe a challenging situation where I failed?
9. What do I do for fun?
10. Why MBA? Why Kellogg?
11. What is my LTG?
12. How would you contribute to Kellogg?
13. Any questions for the adcom? ( I asked a bunch of questions regarding business schools competing amongst themselves for ranking and brand name, etc...also asked about development of new courses around big data etc., asked about kellogg being stereotyped as a Marketing focused school and what the school is doing to break that impression....)

She was taking a lot of notes and was pretty poker-faced although lighted up and smiled a bit once or twice, as far as I remember. It lasted for 42 minutes to be exact.

I feel that I have a 50/50 chance as with any interview, I was pretty confident going in, and was able to mask my nervousness throughout.

Finger's crossed...
