Calling all MIT-Sloan Applicants(2015 Intake) -Class of 2017

Chile, just got an invite. OMG, it was an emotional rollercoaster as I was speaking with my former boss (ex Sloan) the e-mail disappeared and had to search everywhere (finding it in spam, obviously!)

Got an invite! Live in NYC, interviewing on campus. Came at 2:47pm EST.

Anyone in the Chicago area prepping for this interview and want to practice with me? I'm signed up for a slot on 11/25.

Just got the invite! Interviewing in São Paulo. Dates are November 17-19.

Congratulations!!!

Hi Guys / Gals,

I just finished my MIT Sloan interview and I though i'd provide my feedback - take it with a grain of salt, perhaps it helps a bit.

So, as you all know it's a BEI type of interview, which more or less means they're going to take your essays, resume and application and call bullshit on a few of your points. I put it this bluntly, because that's essentially what it is. They want to dig into the details and understand that "equity transaction that saved the world" or whatever spin you put on all the great and glorious accomplishments. As I understand it, they're trying to cut to the core and understand you deeply. I, personally, found it enjoyable. They asked me about my actual work, how i actually think, why i did exactly what i did and if you don't have confidence in yourself, then you're screwed. There's no fluff involved, there aren't any buzz words' flying around, there's no faking it. Kind of refreshing in reality.

I thought mine went well and enjoyed our conversation. My only advice would be to think about really unique experiences that you can talk about in detail (for me, that meant sticking to things i've done in the recent years)

Thanks for the information man, really helpful.

Are those "unique experiences" asked from the essays or is there space to speak freely about other experiences?

Just received an invite for Paris! Dates are between 16 and 18 November.

As I understand it, they should NOT be from your essays or resume. It should be an experience that didn't warrant burning an essay on, yet shows your mindset and thought process on a particular situation and they'll give you that situation - initiative, project, problem, etc.

There was some free space in our conversation, as you're allowed much longer answers than if it was a standard interview - again, this is just my opinion. Net, don't be nervous, have confidence, add details

For those with invites, was your video viewed more than once by Adcom on different dates? Wait is killing me...

I had a blog post of sorts/additional essay. It was viewed twice on Oct. 13th but not after. Pretty sure it was the adcom because almost nobody else had the link.

Invited to interview. Will be in Paris 16-18 November.

There were (from memory) 18 slots available and most were free when I went to select mine.

For those of you wondering, I did submit a optional video essay and it was viewed only once (although YouTube Analytics takes a couple of days to update so will let you know if this changes).
