IE MBA November 2013 Interview tips

Hi

I got accepted into IE business school for November 2013 intake last week. Really excited..

The interview was tough but I managed. The questions I was asked were:
- tell me your story. Basically they want to know what is unique about you.
- why IE? Why an MBA?
- what will you bring to the program?
- I was asked to give 2 elevator pitches on my a company should hire me post my MBA and another one on a business idea to investors were I had state the idea, why the need for it and why the investors should invest. He gave me a minute to prepare for each pitch
- macroeconomic questions like what problem will google and Facebook face in 10 years, what is the problem with the euro zone and where do I think Chinese economy will be in 15 years

That is what I remember for now.

I did the ieGAT test and it wasn't bad. You can't prepare for it and that is what I preferred compared to the GMAT. The ieGAT test was Mathis and English. Not hard at all.

Regarding the cv, there isn't anything specific but I suggest you highlight any entrepreneurial experiences as well as how you have embraced diversity in your professional and personal achievements.

I hope that helps.

All the best! Hope to hear good news!
