Somebackground of the interviewer:
male, got MBA and Lander in 1996

extensive experience in China, can speak mandarin, cantonese and now is learning shanghaiese
CEO of smartclub.com
I must say the interview is really unusual and maybe a weird: 80 minutes interview, no Why MBA, no Why Wharton, no team work, no leadership, no weakness & strength, no contribution, no any traditional questions.
1. go through resume: asked some questions on honors and what drove me to choose current job;
2. what's you will do if you get plenty, says USD10000000M, of money;
3. the famous question Su Buqing was asked when he studied in Japan;
4. what's the constructive criticism you have received;
5. what do u do for fun out of work;
6. what might the biggest concern the adcom might on you;
7. Is there anything you want to tell the adcom to help it get a better understand on you.
I must say that the questions are not limited to the above. The questions are all spantaneous ones that I never expected. But I like it, for it can tell what kind of person you really are.
For those who chose to be interviewed by Henry Winter in Shanghai, I must say that it is a difficult job and you are advised to get prepared for any questions which might jump to his brain.
Good luck to everybody in your application! |
