4. coordinator给我assign的一个面试官住的相当偏远阿，是6个小时以上的单程火车。大家觉得如果我再问问看coordinator是否有在我当地城市的interviewer是不是有些arrogant呢？

Guys, I have just finished my back2back interviews today!

1st: the interviewer asked me to go to his office at 8am, but failed to turn up. When I rang him up, he apparently just got off bed and totally forgot abt this appointment. The re-arranged interview was a bit bumpy. I think I just managed to convince him that I was a 'cool' guy. (It seems that there are Insead interviewers extremely passionate about their school, wanting to ensure that no one sub-INSEAD-standard could get in, but coming across a bit arrogant and cocky...no particular reference to my interviewer


2nd: It went perfectly. The interviewer is more mature and works as partner in a boutique MC firm.


My advice is although you are more likely to have an easy ride in interviews, do prepare yourself for some grilling. Always be confident in whatever you say. By the time you lose your confidence, your chance will get slim.


P.s. drafted this post with work computer where I can only type in English.

Congrats to Lovexiangxiang ! and really hope you get into your dream school ! TKS for the kind sharing of your interview experience as well!   还有要请教一下大家的看法〉面试是否还要给 面试官简历? insead要求我们给interviewer一份profile form,没有要求额外的CV. 网络上有人提议说其实不给 面试官 简历，面试 官 就直接问你Tell me about yourself,这样更容易把握主动权进而推销自己。然而我又有点concern,如果不给简历给面试官，是不是come across as unprepared ?

我没给他们简历，也没人提好像。直到你问这个问题，我才意识到他们没有我的简历！！！很惭愧，我从在没有准备过这个问题。而且每次他们问我说的侧重点都不一样。


但话说回来，如果现在让我选，我还会自己说，把节奏掌握在我手里。我个人的观点（不适用于每个人，因人而异吧。）是你谈话的方式至少和你说的内容一样重要。我面试的三个技巧是自信，自信，自信。

1. 可以准备一份hardcopy带着，另外，面前email沟通的时候询问一下是否需要share一份softcopy给对方。essay一般不用吧，没人有时间读的。

2. 最简单的回答，是"fit"。其实有没有logical thinking, 沟通强不强, 是不是assertive，有没有一定的charisma，这个在聊得过程中会有感觉的。

3. 技术问题。。。 多试试也许就对了

请教一下大家一下几个问题

1．面试还要给interviewer我的简历吗 。insead要求我们给interviewer一份profile form,没有要求额外的CV. 大家会email interviewer profile form softcopy,还是实际面试的时候也带着hardcopy ? 有没有必要给interviewer email我们的 essay ?

2．coordinator 信里 需要关注这几点〉The final decision on your file will be based on an overall evaluation of your academic competence, managerial potential and personal characteristics, as well as your commitment to an international business career. 这里面是不是  managerial potential and personal characteristics, commitment to an international business career 是主要面试中被衡量的?

3．如何下载我的profile?
You can access the profile section by clicking on the following link and following the step-by-step instructions:http://www.etheryl.net/INSEAD/interview/.

但是我真的照做了后，发现实际上下载的是空的表格，难道说我们还是要重新填写的? 不知道我是否错误理解了其中的步骤。

谢谢

CV没有硬性规定要带的。但是我个人会准备一份带过去，面试官不问我不一定会拿出了。Essay是不需要给的。除非面试官特别要求。这样多少有点像blind interview吧，哈哈。INSEAD这样做有它的理由，我觉得，这样面试官可以撇开你写的经验，没有先见之明，直接体会是否fit

2．coordinator 信里 需要关注这几点〉The final decision on your file will be based on an overall evaluation of your academic competence, managerial potential and personal characteristics, as well as your commitment to an international business career. 这里面是不是  managerial potential and personal characteristics, commitment to an international business career 是主要面试中被衡量的?
是的，这个是INSEAD一直宣传的几个衡量标准啊

下载新表后，打开你当时online提交的表，使用export tool把资料导出，保存。接下来打开新表，选择import tool，导入你刚刚保持的资料文件。再保存，将这个新表发给interviewer

谢谢
