I had opted for a virtual interview.
I was matched with a 2nd year student who was a marine veteran, who had done a consulting intern. He was so awesome! super comforting yet professional and was really attentive. The overall interview was for around 45 minutes, with roughly 7-8 minute for questions and rest was our discussion. The only hiccup I made was not being very well versed with my Why Tuck response, but felt made ground on it on how will I contribute to Tuck question. Apart from this, I felt my interview went really well.
Questions:
Walk me through your CV
Your biggest achievement?
Talk more about the carbon market tool you developed
More about your experience in Tokyo
Disagreement
Why MBA? (I included ST and LT goals here)
Why Tuck?
Giving someone hard feedback
How will you contribute?

I had opted for an off-campus, but in-person interview in Delhi-NCR region in India, but that was changed to virtual interview.
I was matched with a 2nd year student from Chinese descent, who had done an investment banking intern. She was awesome overall: super kind, comforting and really attentive. The overall interview was for over 50 minutes, with roughly 10 minute for questions and rest was our discussion. The only minor challenge I had was maybe she didn't have the strongest command on English and didn't understand some of my statements, but apart from it I felt my interview went really well.
Questions:
Introduction
Talk more about the kinds of projects you do
What do you mean by carbon markets?
What countries have you travelled to?
Biggest Achievement
Disagreement
Why MBA? (I included ST and LT goals here)
What Booth resources have you researched about how would that be helpful to you?

I believe they try to match you with someone based on your profile to make the conversation meaningful. It was conversational but few questions were curveball based on my goals. Lots of follow-up on goals, why a particular company, any particular client of the company I will be interested to work with. Then generic - TMAY, Why MBA, Why CBS and how will you contribute to CBS. Specific question around my resume as well on why certain professional qualification and how will it be benefit with an MBA addition. Lastly, they asked me interests outside work and opened the floor for any questions I had.

My interview just went for like 30 mins
My interviewer asked me few questions for 25 mins. And I spent the next five minutes asking my questions
So I don’t know if it’s normal
Because Fuqua interviews normally go for around 45-50 mins

Interview experience sharing:
I interviewed with a second-year student and she was very friendly. The interview lasted about 50 minutes. The interview style didn’t include follow-up questions, so it’s better to include all your key points directly in your answers rather than trying to hold something back for later.
1. Can you tell me about yourself and share more about who you are?
2. What motivates you both personally and professionally?
3. What would you say is your greatest personal achievement?
4. Why are you applying for an MBA, and why at this particular moment?
5. Can you go deeper into your short-term and long-term career goals?
6. What is your Plan B if your primary career goals don’t work out?
7. What has been the best piece of constructive feedback you have received from a manager?
8. How would your manager describe you, and why are you an asset to the team?
9. Can you tell me about a time you had a conflict with a team member and how you resolved it?
10. Can you tell me about a time you made a mistake in a leadership position?
11. How do you think an ideal team should work?
12. What about Fuqua is different from the other MBA programs you’re considering?
13. What particular communities excite you the most and why?
14. What does Team Fuqua mean to you?
15. Do you have any questions for me?
Hope that helps!

Mine was with an alum - but similar experience. Very conversational and friendly in tone but also a lot of follow-up questions. The follow-ups did seem to come from genuine interest/curiosity, but they weren’t questions that would be easy to “gloss over”.

Hey. My interview was with a 2nd year student. I think they try to match you with someone with similar background. It was conversational but also tough because he asked a lot of follow up questions on my goals, my background, how it is linked, any specific companies (in terms of my goals) I am interested in etc etc. then generic TMAY, Why MBA, Why CBS, interests outside work.

Hi Guys, R1 admit here.
Apart from the general questions that I can see here, a few questions I would like to talk about:
What is your Plan C? (because of the current job market)
One question which I wasn't prepared for and was unexpected is - what location would you like to work at Europe, Asia, USA ? if USA where in USA , etc. I don't remember whether it was short term or long term.
Tell me about a time you stood up for your colleague.

My interview was started 10 minutes late. Even though I had joined on time and I could see the interviewer was also there, he didn't add me into the call and I kept waiting. The interview ended in like 15 mins I think.
No reaction to my answers, no follow-ups, felt like he was reading through a script and seemed to be doing some other work.
