UCLA, UT Austin, USC MBA 面试经验

UCLA R2

面试是由学校指定的校友面的。那个校友特别严肃，因为是第一所学校，准备很不充分，个人觉得面得很一般。

问题：

1. introduce myself, discuss my career path, why MBA, future plan
2. how do I like my job, what responsibility
3. desired work after MBA, which companies do I know are in this area, how do they work, why do you like the work, what disadvantage do you have in applying a job there, why do you think you can do well there........
4. why quit the current company? 
5. leadership story
6. strengths
7. how will I spend the two years in UCLA?
8. how do I like the school?
9. why the school should admit me?
10. hobbies
11. anything I want to say / ask?

用了45分钟，整个过程他一直在记录。

之后回复我的感谢信，但是他告诉我说他只是做了该做的，他不理解我为什么要感谢他。。。我写的信可能太失败了。。。

UT R2

2月上旬接到面试邀请，然后上网看了校友名单。我选择了和一位我有共同行业背景的。

然后因为春节的关系，等了一个礼拜没有回信，然后我就每天换一个人发信。最后最早联系的那个校友终于回信了，但是因为地点的原因，他觉得和我不在一个城市不太方便，于是推荐了和我在同一个公司工作的一位校友。

然后联系了这位校友之后，他很热情，先把自己登记到面试的人的名单里面，然后通知我再去点他。。最后两个礼拜之后终于约好了时间。用公司的系统聊了一下天，发现他还是我的校友。

因为这位校友是第一次做面试官，整个过程非常轻松。我因为面试过另一家学校，所以反而更有经验的样子。。。

主要聊的话题如下：

1. discuss my career path
2. why MBA, future plan
3. how do I think of our company? how do I like the work here?
4. what's my plan in McCombs
5. how do I relieve stress? (my answer disappointed him ^^)
6. "you are a good guy, I know. But what if I DING you?" (I told him: if he dings me, he gets nothing except a Chinese colleague who works here for another a couple of years. However, If he helps me, he can earn a friend who attended the same two universities and who can treat him someday in US or China VERY WELL. )
7. small talks.. about the whether in Texas, his life in McCombs, his personal life, my personal life, etc.

总共用了45分钟，最后他说很满意，打满分。。但是他一点内容没有记录，让我觉得有点不安。。

下午面了usc, 很年轻的女面试官，也是比较常规的问题，加俩：what is the usual misconception about you?
three words your friends describe you with? 说4月1号出结果。
