羡慕，羡慕，你的心境！
可否告知，你是在外企，还是国内企业？

请教一下：你问了面试官什么问题？

1。I asked the interview: what is your current position in your company and why are you so successful in this position?

2.心境：面试完，满心喜悦，我心歌唱，我心感恩。
昨天还很兴奋，喜悦源源不断涌出，忍不住和同事讲了一点。但我的好哥们马上制止我，要谨言慎行，拿到正式通知再说。
今天已经平静了，上班，做股票，处理国有资产转让，向国资委打申请转让的报告，准备复习数学和经济学，要笨鸟先飞。

3。我在国企，天天上班，天天开会。上周四周五还在上海开董事会。因为面试还没落实，搞得忧心如焚。从上海坐国航飞机回来，竟晚点3小时！到深圳机场已11点了。马上到老师家拿港澳通行证。回到家已12点45分。然后给美国打电话。打了三次，SERITA都不在。接电话的老太太说可能要等一小时。我就把手机调到15分一闹，一醒就打一次。终于凌晨3点半，打通了。SERITA网开一面，给我另外三个ALUMNI的联系方式。等我给他们发完EMAIL，已经是4点了，正好离我下午离开龙柏饭店去机场12个小时！

JamesHose, Thank you!
You are part of my success!

My wife is my leader! She told me where I shoud turn left to buy the ticket, where to get the forms to fill, where to enter the first class seat because there are some foreigners who will give me some sense of being abroad and where to buy the 3goto telephone card.

So, I acted as if I have been to Hong Kong for many times. I didn't have any difficulty of being an alien. This kept me in a very good mood. I was at the best status at that moment.

I had mock interview with Chuck with the my TV turning on in my 90 square meters living room. So, I was not scared to have interview in the open area where there were a lot of distractions.

Serious

主要你来美国,你就能来.把自己交给主,一切听主安排,喜悦必如高山悬瀑,源源不绝.

hehe, first congratulation on you for your great interview! but i have to say something about Wharton interview according to my own experience.

last year, I also had an extremely successful interview with a Wharton alumna who even promised me to support me to get in with his fullest efforts. i believe i was much more excited at that time than you are now. actually I knew from the feedback session that he gave me very good evaluation and adcom even mentioned some wonderful details in the interview. however, I got an rejection at last.

as a re-applicant this year, i had my hub interview in shanghai last Friday. nothing special. i think it went well, but not so well as the one i had last year.

now, i do believe that interview plays an important but very limited role in the whole applicaiton package. although adcom has repeatedly clarified that all interview forms will be considered equally, actually interviews are highly biased by personal interests and experiences. therefore i can understand why adcom pays small attention to interview, regardless of how well you have performed and how well your interviewer has evaluated you in the report. the significance of interivew is limited as long as you did not perform very poor which can surely cause a ding.

anyway, i still congratulation you.
let's wait for the final decision date. good luck to all of us.

1.主和上帝是一个流派的吗？

2。Actually, the interviewer told me that the Admission Committee has the final judgement. He said even the President of Upenn can't let me in if the Admission Committee says no. So, it is why I still tried to call the representatives of Wharton. I wanted to have some hint from them. I am still prepared to accept a rejection or waitinglist on Dec. 23rd.

Apart from Wharton, I still wait for the invitation of HBS.

I am open to any unintended results. Don't worry about me.
Even if that happens, I have nothing to lose. I have wonderful job, lovely family, 200 square meters house and a Nissan Cefiro. And secret amount of stocks!

Great! Should be in this mood! If we had already tried our best, we should not feel regretful.
