Basically both interviews were pretty normal and outgoing conversations, myself doing a lot of the talking and walking my interviewers through my resume.
The usual stuff was present (why an MBA; why INSEAD; why now). I have a pretty compelling story (I want to move into management consulting) so these answers are all pretty straightforward and consistent in my case
My first interviewer did make some tricky questions about when did I believe the EURO currency was going to collapse (¿?), probably to test my knowledge of Europe and its current political/economical situation. Even though my answer to this particular question was not very solid I believe I had in overall two very good interviews and I am definitely looking forward to decision day. My story made sense to both of them and the fact that I've worked abroad for some time definitely helps a lot.
I am a bit concerned though about the lack of internship for the September intake, specially considering that i want to switch sectors (currently working in airline industry and want to move into management consulting). I have read all over the place that the internship is only crucial if you want to move into IB (not my case), but it would be great to have some positive reinforcement that the September intake shouldn't present any risks in terms of fulfilling my career switch desire. Obviously the January intake is best in this sense, but I don't want to wait more months for business school
