Done with my community assessment on the 8th.
Questions asked :
1) tell me about yourself
2) why MBA
3) why rice
4) how would you select an MBA program
5) views on diversity
6) any questions for me
The interview was with a current student it was very friendly nothing to stress about .
I am currently working in Nigeria so my interviewer was also from Nigeria so it was easy to share my background. I think they pair you with someone who is of a similar background.
Good luck to everyone!!

I did my interview on Thursday. Format was virtual with an admissions officer and a 2nd year student sort of taking turns asking questions. It was a mix of get to know you type questions and behavioral type questions where they asked some things like: a time when I gave a presentation and how it went; something I'm most proud of; what I've done/I do to support diversity and inclusion within my organization, etc... I felt very comfortable throughout as they did an excellent job of making it feel like a dialogue and not just a sequence of questions I had to answer. I asked the 2nd year student how they decided to attend Scheller when they were applying to schools and they gave a very candid answer that I really appreciated.

My interview took around 30-35 minutes including my questions; it was pretty relaxed more as a conversation.
I was interviewed by the admissions team and the questions were pretty standard:
- Walk me through your Resume
- Why MBA, Why now and Why Georgetown
- Short term and long term career goals
- Plan B if the first career choice does not work
- Recent challenging situation and how did you handle it
- What will be the decision making factors for selecting the school, if you are admitted to multiple MBA programs

Hi folks, I had my interview with Diana Fleming last night. She was really nice and the whole interview felt very conversational. She'd occasionally interrupt, in a good way, to add her comments or ask questions as you go through your resume/background. Some major takeaways:
- She intently followed the 30-minute time limit; the last 5 minutes left for questions
- The standard questions I got: Tell me about yourself/walk me through your resume, why MBA now, why Goizueta.)
- At least half of my questions/time was spent on follow-up questions based on my background, which I think happens very often in Goizueta's interviews. So I'd suggest future interviewees be prepared for that. (Questions like, tell me a little more about this particular experience, what you've learned in this experience, etc.)
I got caught off guard a bit when she asked me those "unexpected" follow-up questions, but I think I did ok overall. Hope for the best!
