Had my interview yesterday.
Location: Delhi, 4:15pm, Panel 8
Panel: 2 alums (both co2011) + 1 ISB ELP committee director
One word essay was on 'Reward'. Interview was brief (20-25 mins max). No grilling or cross questioning. Panel found my profile interesting. Questions were as follows:
1) Why do you want to leave your business (even though its a profitable venture with annual sales of Rs.1.5 crore) and Why come to ISB?
2) How did you get into this business?
3) Take us through your professional journey so far
4) Take your own business as a case study. What will you do to improve the margins? What are the problems involved?
5) How did you get into quizzing (had mentioned it as my hobby)?
6) Do you know what consulting companies look for while hiring candidates? (had mentioned consulting as post-MBA goal)
7) How do you think your entrepreneurship experience will help you in your consulting career?
No guesstimations at all. No questions on my EY experience.
Nevertheless, I have a bad feeling about the entire experience.
My profile:
GMAT: 680
Academics: 59.4% (Bachelor of Business Studies from SSCBS, Delhi University)
Experience: EY (4.5 yrs), Own business (2 yrs)
Extra-currics: Quizzing
ATB to everyone !!
