My entire interview lasted almost an hour including 5 mins Q&A

The questions are as below:

1. Introduce your self
   
   
2. Why MBA? Why Smith?
   In this question, the interviewer asked me why I switched my job from big company to a small company.
   
   
3. Leadership experience
   About leadership, he extend a premised question. What kind of your boss's characters do you dislike?
   
   
4. On the basis of previous question, he also aske some premised questions. Such as , if the person you dislike is your boss, how will you do?
   
   
5. Case questions
   He asked me if I am Starbucks GM in certain place, how will I expand the market share in remote place? 
   We had a lot of discussion about marketing strategies. The interviwer will ask you many " why" and " how "
   
   
6. One minute to promote your favorite movie to the interviewer
   
   
7. Who is your role model? and why?
