The admissions team mentioned sometime in early April as the original time slot they provided me conflicted with another interview I had.

The admissions team did mention to me they had their peak admission period so I would expect them to take longer to respond

It was a pleasant interview, it was the "potential" part of the two interviews. Talked mostly about my leadership traits as well as my motivations for pursuing a MBA. Also talked about my initial motivation for working in China. It was in-person here in Shanghai.

EDIT: FYI, my application status is also Under Review, it doesn't change after you get interview invite or complete the interview :)

First interview? The is the first time I am hearing of multiple interviews.

Is it an exception or a norm?

I think its the norm, the interview is in two parts: 1. background and motivation 2. potential. Maybe in some cases they do both in one go. Anyways, mine was part 2 in-person and part 1 will be with adcom over skype.

Does anyone know how long it takes the school to give a response after the interview. I have an offer from another school but my interview with HKUST isn't till next week, so I'm afraid of timelines.
Thanks.

Normally is 1 week to my understanding. I got an offer from another school as well but currently pending some documents hence slight delay. I am worried about the lapse in timing as well. I will highlight in the interview and shall see what can they do about it.
