The second interview was an informal chat with their head of career development, not a proper interview it was 15'-20'

Hi guys just checking in. Had my 2nd interview this week. For those waiting for 2nd invite - be patient. There was 3 and half weeks between my interviews. One of my docs got lost on the way so that could have delayed the process. Pretty excited...fingers and toes are crossed in hope of an offer. Good luck to all - keep us updated!

Hi Guys,

Apologies but I misread thread I was referring to HKU
I have my 1st HKUST interview tomorrow

Any tips? I guess it' s the usual work background/why MBA-why NOW questions and ledership stuff right?

It took about 5 weeks from the 1st interview. And that includes delays with my docs getting to them. They are very fast at responding to emails/organising times etc

Congrats to everyone here!

I got admitted as well! Yay!! I didn't receive the call but I saw an email from HKUST when I woke up this morning. I was pretty panic because I thought all of us should received a call when they are accepted (unless it is a ding). And now I know it is an unoffical acceptance email, so yay!

Hey guys, according to HKUST, there are not a lot of local students within the course. Since I am from HK (currently working in the UK), please feel free to send a pm to me if you have any question about accommodation or culture. If you need, I can have a short skype session with you guys!

Always happy to help!:)
