I heard they had an uptick in applications this year so I wouldn't be surprised if the acceptance rate is lower.

Is there anywhere where we can look up styles of different sloan interviewers? read a few reviews and it's a mixed bag - either conversational or stern.

From what they say on www.mitsloanadmissions.com it is a couple of CV type questions and then 3-4 behavioural.

Had my interview yesterday. Very different to what I expected - only one behavioural question. Interview took about 30min, talked about my motivations, how I ended up at my current employer and some more general questions (a leader I admire, Why MIT, general questions about the company I work for).

Good luck everyone!

Blast from the Past: Interview debriefs of previous MIT Sloan applicants



gadela
I had my interview with Sloan yesterday. it was great experience!

here's my advice for anyone who has an interview coming up and might be worried about it: act natural and be yourself!

really. that's it.

If you were invited to interview that means the AdCom already likes you and your story. In terms of interview prep, you should already have figured out who you are, what kind of impact you've had in your professional experience, and why MIT is the place for you. Sincerity is key. It is very hard to give "canned answers" to the types of questions you'll encounter because the format is so conversational and because the questions probe deep for specific examples. If you have a sincere story and your experience is actually everything that you said it was on the application, then you should have no problem talking in detail about some of the projects you worked on, the conflicts you encountered, the relationships you built, or any other accomplishments that were mentioned on the application.

good luck everybody.

Hi all! I had an interview a week ago. Be prepared that your interviewer may know nothing about your professional experience and profile. That was my problem, as I started answering first question "What's new since your application" giving a lot of details about my last project. Later, i understood that interviewer didn't know anything about this particular project, although i wrote about it in my essays. In general, my interview was very and very conversational with only 1 or 2 behavioural questions, and questions on goals/Why MIT.

Blast from the Past: Interview debriefs of previous MIT Sloan applicants



asa2107
Interviewed by Admission Director on 29th Nov

-- Carry your business card ( The adcom gave me his card before beginning the interview, I was not carrying mine)
-- Started off with Has anything changed from your previous application?
-- Dwelled on Resume , work profile
-- Several Behavioral questions , and then probed deeply on how did i behave in those situations, what was I thinking, what was the other guy thinking, why did I behave in that particular fashion, What were the repercussions, etc.
--> Tell me about a situation when u implemented a creative solution
--> Tell me about a situation when u were assigned to a broken process and you corrected it
--> Tell me about a time when u faced a difficult situation with your subordinates
-- What do you want to do post MBA?
-- Why Sloan?
-- Last question was .. We have very less time left, so you could either ask me a question or you could tell me something more about yourself that is not there in your resume or that we have not covered so far. ( I chose to talk abt myself :/)

All the best.
