Hey, I just got an interview invite. Any tips?

Posted from my mobile device

Hi Hnkhan,

Congrats on the invite!

Mine was a little tricky as I felt the interviewer was putting the same question in different ways:

- Why I want to do MBAN?
I answered this by covering what I lack currently, what the program offers, what I will learn, and how it will enhance my skills for my future endeavour

Then,
- What I currently lack because of which I wish to do this course?
- What do you think the course will offer you that will help me after the program?
- What do you wish to do after you have achieved these learnings?

I had already covered these in my first answer, so I had to table the same things using different words.

Some other questions where:
- How will you contribute to your peers whilst in program and after graduation?
- What according to you is the common misconception that people have about you?

And then there were questions related to my professional work experience. The complete conversation lasted for about 25 mins.

I hope this helps. Good luck!

Thanks for the help and after how many days after the interview did they give you the admission offer?

I got the offer 8 days after the interview.

Hi, is this thread still active?

Perhaps we can add this program to our school database. Can anyone tell me the duration of this program and in which month classes start?

it's a 12 months program and starts in August-end or September.

Thank you! Appreciate your quick reply. I've added this program to database and added stats in the first post. Today is the last day to apply in R4. Good luck to everyone who is applying!
