问:申请人最常见的错误是什么?
答: Not following directions! It is usually the simple things that trip people up.
Sometimes they don't spell check or have the right school in an essay. But a big one is not answering the essay question. Make sure you address what the question is asking and give specific examples.
问:大多数人在申请短文中会写一些他们认为你们希望听到的话,这样做有什么不妥吗?
答:That happens a lot as well. Don't worry about what you think we want to hear. Tell us what you want us to know about you.
The question I ask myself after reading a candidate's essays, do I know anything more about the candidate than before I started reading. In many cases, the answer is no.
问:你们进行电话面试吗?如何面试海外的申请人呢?
答: We often travel abroad to conduct interviews, although we didn't do that as much this year due to budget. Interviews are not required for admission, so if you are unable to visit campus then we won't be able to interview you. It will not be held against you.
问: Kelley是较少的一个能够拥有Cisco 作为十大雇主的商学院,为什么?因为他们的CEO吗?
答: I'm sure it helps that he is one of our alums, but it also has to do with the strength of our IS major and the technology integrated into our program.
John Chambers is loyal to the Kelley School. He just gave us a personal gift of one million dollars to start the Chambers internship program.
问:亚洲申请人的GMAT最低线是多少?
答: There isn't a bottom line on the GMAT for Asians. We look at the complete app. Strong English skills are important though.
问:如何看待re-applicants?
答: We look to see how the candidate has improved, and what they have accomplished since their last application.
We do have the evaluation from the previous year. We look to see if they requested feedback and if they did anything to improve based on the feedback provided.
问:Kelley最好的三个专业是什么?毕业生从事投资银行的机会大吗?
答: We are seeing our investment banking program grow especially as a result of the academy, although corporate finance is still the larger concentration area in finance.
About 40% of our students are Marketing, about 40% Finance, and the rest spread between other majors.
问:如果申请人提交额外的推荐信,你们如何处理?
答: We provide a form, but they don't have to use it. They can write a letter on their letterhead. We prefer they send just two, but we will read what they send. They might consider saving the third letter to send if they are waitlisted.
They may send an additional letter if they think it provides a different perspective than the other two, but a third recommendation is really not necessary.
问: 能不能提供一下每家公司录用Kelley毕业生的职位?
答: I don't think we publish that specific data but if you email our graduate career services office, they could probably tell you the position a specific company hired for last year. It might get a little detailed to publish all of them.
I don't believe our career services staff publishes that specific information on their web site, but if you contact them, I'm sure they can provide some details.
问:Kelley对最近发生的一些丑闻有何见解?比如Enron, Worldcom, Tyco.
答:We talk about Business Ethics in our core and have had some recent guest speakers who have addressed the topic. I don't see our curriculum changing dramatically because of it, though.
We have always considered ethics in our curriculum. Currently, the focus is on critical thinking--the thinking necessary to make ethical decisions.
问:Kelley要求短文限制在两页以内,如果超出会有什么后果?
答: When it goes beyond the third. I'm not any happier, however, when they make it fit in two pages by using a very small font and no margins!
问:最低工作经验是多少年?可以包括实习吗?
答: We don't have a minimum, but on average our students have five years of full-time experience.
We do look at your internships, but are more concerned about the quality of your post undergrad work experience--leadership, progression, teamwork, etc.
问:如果已经拥有一个MBA学位,你们还会录取他吗?
答: Not if it was earned in the U.S. If it was earned outside of the U.S. and they can make a compelling case for why they need a U.S. MBA, we will consider them.
问:GMAT, GPA, essays, w/e or recommendations,请问你们最看重哪一项?
答:We don't consider any one factor any more or any less important than another. They all provide different bits of information about a candidate's potential.
问:短文超过两页,但字迹清晰工整,会对申请不利吗?
答: Not if it is relevant. But keep in mind we have 100s of essays to read, so being concise is important.
问:申请人年龄比较大,算是不利因素吗?比如年届30?
答: Recruiters are looking for students to fill certain positions. If you are overqualified, it can often be difficult to find employment. Focus, past experience, and why you want an MBA will be important. What do you want to do when you finish?
It’s not about age, it's about the appropriateness of the degree in relation to the candidate's goals.
问:如果在以前的就学期间曾经有过领导经历,算有利因素吗?
答: leadership during your academic year through clubs, extra-curriculars or community service is helpful. It is also good to have it currently.
问:Kelley如何培养学生的领导能力?为学生提供什么机会?
答: We have a program called the Leadership Development Institute. It is designed to help students further their leadership skills in an effort to make them stronger business leaders. It starts during orientation.
LDI provides opportunities for all our students to get a complete leadership assessment as part of our orientation program.
And then, students are provided feedback, and information about opportunities to take advantage of through the MBA program to build their leadership skills.
LDI focuses on all aspects of leadership skills, from communication and presentation to the ability to think on your feet. There are targeted workshops offered through the year.
问:拥有技术背景的申请人有多大比例呢?被录取的又是多大比例呢?
答:We actually don't have admit rates broken down by functional or academic background.
问:您对被放在wait-list上的申请者有何建议?
答: They are welcome to request feedback and then try to address any concerns we might have had, but sometimes even good candidates are waitlisted due to limited space.
Waitlisted candidates should make sure we know they are still interested!
问:面试官在面试前是不是已经读过申请人的材料?
答: We encourage applicants to interview before they apply--we have only a resume.
问:Kelley的学生俱乐部活动丰富吗?例如the consulting and entrepreneurship clubs ?
答: The consulting academy is very active, especially in case competitions. We also have an entrepreneurship club and academy that work closely with the Johnson Center for Entrepreneurship and Innovation. They have tons of guest speakers and activities. They also have an internship program.
问:Bloomington 有多少家Starbucks?
答:At last count, three Starbucks.
问:Bloomington 的entrepreneurial activity多吗?
答: Actually yes. Bloomington has a lot of independently owned restaurants, stores, and small companies. The Johnson Center on campus also works with companies throughout the state, midwest and some national companies. Therefore, students have a lot of interaction with entrepreneurial companies if they want it.
问:大型管理咨询公司是如何进行招聘的?都由哪些公司来Kelley招聘?
答:Consulting recruiting is down on most campuses. We have some coming, but not as many as in '99 and 2000.
I believe that AT Kearney is coming this year. Other then that I would need to check with our career services because I haven't seen a current list. Jim might have more info, but we can always get it if someone emails us.
问:是不是身为Hoosier的篮球迷的申请者更受青睐?
答: If you aren't one when you enroll, you'll be one before you leave.
No, but it will make me like you a lot more--just kidding.
问:如果申请人在中国的证券业工作了6年,请问读完MBA后留在美国从事投资银行的可能性有多大?Kelley是不是一个最佳选择呢?
答: We have a great Finance department and an investment banking academy. We are a good choice for anyone interested in investment banking. It is difficult to predict, however, what the job market will look like in a few years.
问:对国际学生有何建议?
答: I would encourage you to start pursuing your visa early. Once you have made a decision on a school because the US is implementing some new databases that may delay the visa process. We don't have much info yet but when we do we will share it with our candidates. Strong communications skills are also important.
问:有多少学生就读于Kelley的国际商业专业?
答: We have lots of students interested in international business. More will pick it up as a minor than as a major.
问: John Chambers最后一次回母校是什么时候?他作讲座了吗?
答: I don't know the answer to that. I know that students have contacted him recently about coming and he is trying to find a date that works for his calendar. He travels a lot. He was excited to come, though...I'm looking forward to it.
I should know when he was last here, but unfortunately I don't know! He did host members of one of our Academies at Cisco last year.
问:投资银行俱乐部如何帮助学生进一步提高这方面的技能呢?
答:Networking mostly. They meet a lot of the top firms, take trips to NY and network. They also have guest speakers, special classes and access to our trading room.
问:在申请中,Indiana居民与非Indiana居民有何区别?
答: There is really no advantage or disadvantage to being an IN resident. The difference is just in tuition rates you pay.
Indiana residents and non-residents are treated the same through the admissions process.
问:海外学生的比例有多大?
答:We are at about 30% international.
问:请谈谈Kelley的国际商务专业?
答: We do have strong international mgmt major and academy. The academy also helps students find international internships. Dr. Garcia runs it and if you email me I can get you his email.
More choose it as a minor because they realize that companies typically don't recruit for "international management" majors. They are usually looking for candidates with an international perspective, and a functional expertise (like marketing, finance, etc.).
问:你们的雇主是不是更多来自中西部的公司?
答: We get recruiters from all over the US, but we have a strong marketing and corporate finance program, so many of those graduates go to consumer good companies. Many CGP's are based in the Midwest. |
