[面试经验] IN@USC + 电话面经（ad com）

Just got email from USC - as expected. Hopefully there will be scholarships. Below is my original post about my interview experiences. Good luck to everyone!

*****************************

刚刚跟USC ad com电话面试完 - 我是EA，提交材料后，在去年11月份的World MBA Tour上见到过Ad Com，聊了几句，没过几天（大概是11月中下旬）就收到了interview。School希望我去LA面试，但是工作原因实在安排不开。学校说，09年春天会来中国面试（当时说不提供校友面试和电话面试）。春节后跟学校联系后，学校说，你是EA，拖得太久了，还是电话面试吧。几经周折后，有了今天凌晨的38分钟对话。

言归正传，USC的面试有点不太一样，感觉不是blind interview：

1 - (roles & responsibilities) why not we start from your recent role in xxx? what are your responsibilities?

2 - (follow-up questions regarding my responsibilities) please tell me more about xxxx.

3 - (drilling down to more details regarding my answers to question 2) what sort of specific involvement you have done?

4 - (career transition) please tell me why you switch from xx to xx?

5 - (still current responsibilities in resume) you mentioned that you initiated xxxx with people from 5 countries. can you tell me more about that?

6 - (why school) why Marshall?

7 - (career goal) you said you wanna do xx. tell me what motivated you to do that? and how you see your business will be developing?

8 - (follow-up question regarding my answers to question 7) do you want to start your business in Beijing? I explained why to her. 

9 - (hobbies) what you like to do outside of work? I talked about foods, and we chatted a lot here

10 - (Q&A) do you have any questions for me?

总体来说，没有预料到开始的时候被追问的这么深入。但是因为看不到人，也不紧张，所以还好。对方人非常nice，我想如果能面对面的话，会更好。教训：对自己的简历一定要吃透，吃透意味着你对每一件事情，每一句话，都要想清楚，而且能表达清楚（challenges, actions, results, impacts, learning）

之前看到USC没有太多的面试分享，希望今天的分享，能够帮助申请USC的各位XDJM。加油！

详细！我每次面试都记不住什么，看来脑子有问题。

J，感觉你要把USC拿下了

热心的Jason, good luck!
