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.

My interview was very conversational. I had the interview with Megan (an associate director) and a 2nd year student. Most of the questions were on my career goals and why MBA, why Scheller, not too many behavioral questions cuz I began with my story in professional It was exactly 45 mins long I shared about my professional exp, than they ask follow-up questions on that. I recalled they only asked me about the client portfolio I have worked with (my background is consultant from Deloitte), teamwork made me unforgettable 45 mins went really fast as the 2nd year student also shared about his exp at Scheller as well

My Interview It was a very conversational, friendly interview. He asked about myself and later made 3-4 follow up questions. And from that, the conversation stemmed. A question I wasn’t ready for was: “is there anything you’d want the admissions committee to know about you?” It took me a minute to answer. But overall, very friendly.
