hey, fficeffice" />


congrats to the interview invite!     I hope you end up in sloan so that we can be classmates!     Here is what I think of the interview - it is tough to get a mit sloan interview (small class    size and all)    so since you did get it I am sure you are well accomplished in life and did well in the application package, so I wouldn’t worry much about the interview process.     From my experience, the interview was very laid back and short, the interviewer was extremely nice (sorry I can’t disclose the name of the interviewer), so the interview process was painless and rather enjoyable.     my tip about the interview is “be yourself”, show your real characteristics and goals.     show who you really are.     That’s what I did and seems worked.     


As far as the specific questions, honestly i don't remember the exact questions word by word and even if I did I am not sure if I am at the position to disclose them.     but here is what I remember that might be useful– all questions were behavior questions asking your past experiences, and the impression that I got was that they want to see who you are, how you do things, how you deal with people, etc, via your past experiences.     So, to help prepare for the interview, definitely know your resume and application package really well.     Prepare at least one example for each key point about    yourself (e.g. prepare one example for leadership skills, one example for hard working... you got the idea).     As long as you come prepared with examples and can present them well in the interview, I think you are all set.    


By the way, do you mind me asking your background and where you are located at?     I hope it works out for you and we will be classmates.     Please keep in touch.

thanks for the advises. fjapl mm.


It's good to hear the interview from sloan is painless. Frankly say, I don't feel I am a good performer    in interview. But the good news is, I am recovering from the cough which lasted 2 months back from last December. It was so annoying and made    my interview with Kellogg alumni    a not very pleasant experience.


About my background, 28, gmat <740, W/E 4 (1.5 IT, 2.5 project management), so so GPA from under and masters). I'm in San Diego

winder, you are welcome.        really, don't worry about being a great interview performer or not...in my opinion, it is not something that one can determine objectively.     although some fundmental qualities/skills are necessary for a successful interview, it is in the eye of the particular interviewer to determine if you (or your style)    are a good fit for the school or not.     because each school    has different culture and    would    focus on (slightly) different qualities/personalities    of the candidates, a    particular presentation style judged as good at one    school could be judged    differently at another    school.     that's why fit is    extremely important...


an    interesting fact that i have noticed,    you and i registered    at CD    on the same day.     nice coincidence.

Hey I'm in Shanghai and got an interview invite for next week. So far I only saw the three of us in China getting an invite, but I'm sure there are others... When are you doing your R2 interviews?
