A trio of applicants to Wharton shared their interview questions from second-year student interviewers, including:
An Early Decision applicant to Columbia Business School also faced some questions about team work from an alum:
- [Provide an] example of leading a team.
- [Give me an] example of contributing to a team.
- [Explain an] example of a challenging team/group situation.
- Describe an ethical dilemma you have observed or experienced at work.
Across the pond, a London Business School Round 1 applicant interviewed with an alum:
- [What are your] goals? How will LBS help you get there?
- Have you applied to others schools? Which ones? Why?
The LBS applicant went on to describe the presentation portion of the interview,
- “At some point he gave me a topic for my presentation and he asked that I don’t share the topic with anyone so I won’t, but it was a general topic that did not require any particular knowledge. I had 7 minutes to prepare and 5 minutes to present. It did require some serious thinking and was very concrete.”
