OSU Fisher MBA 面试汇总（2009-2010）

myice

非常感谢fisher的校友Dickson和Simon，也很感谢workshop战友的帮助！

很开心。总共面了两次，和David面了一次，又跟Alison电面一次；

David很nice，还喜欢称呼自己“大叔”，中文哦；问题基本都是常规问题，leadership, teamwork, international exposure, career switch, career goal, why MBA, why fisher..

Alison是电话面，下面是在google搜到的，基本都是问了相同的问题。。（转自pagalguy.com）

Gentlemen,

I had my all-day interview on Monday. Alison Merzel interview
me for around 40 min (went long probably coz' my answers were kinda
detailed...had a lot to say!!).

Questions that I recall are as follows:

1.) Talk about a
person(s) in your life that has been instrumental in gettin you to where you are
today..and how?

2.) Why do you wanna get an MBA?

3.) How does
Fisher help you in reaching those goals you talked about?

4.) Talk about
a person in your life that you look up to...(for leadership roles,
etc.)

5.) A person in the business arena that you consider a role
model?

6.) Tell me something that's passionate to you on a personal
level?

7.) What are your opinions on outsourcing in general?

8.)
Talk about a corporate policy that you think could be changed

9.) Talk
about some problems you have faced while leading a team

10.) How would
you manage a team...what do you think is needed to manage a team
successfully.


Well, that's all I can remember for now...I believe I
answered all questions to my satisfaction except No. 4...

I also met with
a career services representative, went to a class, had lunch with student
ambassadors, toured the school and the Fisher Commons housing facility, and had
a final "informational interview" (kinda informal) with David Smith, the
Director of Admissions.

The day started at 8.45 am and ended 3.45
pm

Good luck to all!
   

电话面还是很不同，之前面砸了一家，有点害怕；个人经验是一定要找有免提和mute功能的电话；第一次就是为了找方便，就用家里电话了，结果拿着话筒面了45分钟，很痛苦；这次特意找了一部思科的专门做conference call的电话，效果比较好；当然录取也可能跟其他的原因有关，总之还是要注意每个细节。

很感谢fisher，在Christmas当天发出admission letter,真是敬业！

in Fisher (OSU) + 面经

刚收到Fisher offer. 面试是上周举行的. offer这周给的.速度还挺快的. offer没提奖学金.估计没戏.

顺便把电话面试问题汇总一下, 用了17分钟的样子.

1. why mba, what affected you most in applying fisher.

2. what's your leadership style?

3. give me an exapmle of an industry that you think will go obsolete.

4. if you are going to a different career, what would that be? (大概这个意思.措辞不太一样)

5. how do you keep yourself from internal laziness (such as watching tv).

6. during a meeting, if your coworker takes credits for what you do, what would be your response (大概这个意思.措辞可能不同).

给我面试的是一个1年纪还是2年纪的学生. 上来先说面试大概持续30分钟. 人还比较nice. 比较formal.

OSU Fisher面经

昨天刚刚电面了Fisher的student ambassador.前几天看到还有其他XDJM也在申这校，所以把面试问题列一下供大家参考吧。

1 career goal

2 personal goal (career 以外的)

3 why Fisher

4 期望从Fisher获得什么帮助？

5 What motivates you?

6 a situation where you showed passion

7 a time when you have to look from other people’s perspective to solve conflict

(意思就是要换位思考，站在与你有矛盾的对方看问题才能解决矛盾,描述一个这样的情况)

8 a hypothetical situation where breaking corporate rules might be the right thing to do

9 Suppose you did all the work, but in a meeting, someone else took all the credit, what would you do?

10 Describe an industry that you think is obsolete.


个别问题还是要准备下为好，不然真可能会“卡壳”。

可能对每个申请人问的问题都会略有不同的，所以以上仅供参考。

补充一下,还有个问题是describe your leadership style,我刚想起来.

上来报个offer, 刚才收到的mail
GMAT 740/ PBT 637/10+w/e 航空业/ GPA 3.52
还不知是否有奖

偶是申请12/31 deadline, 1/23 Alison 来信邀我面试, 我约了2/17 SKYPE, 今早来结果的, good luck!!

myice

FISHER 面经, 个人认为可能不具有代表性，是一为2年纪的黑人哥哥面的, 通过SKYPE面的, 他是喝着咖啡,俺是喝着水.

问题如下:

1. WHY MBA

2.WHY FISHER

3.俺崇拜的LEADER ( 我说了JACK WALCH, 追问为什么,)

4. 领导风格 ( WHY)

5.什么样的企业RULES 我不能接受, 或者能接受

6. 什么样的动力支撑着我一直工作啊, 学MBA 等等

7. 我读什么样的财经杂志

8.我对现在金融风暴的认识,

9. 还记起一个, 做GM的时候 对企业的BUDGET. 真是针对工作经历提的.

好象就这么多, 忘了,  能不能被录取,要两三个星期后知道, FISHER真的好慢啊,

myice

我申请的是Fisher的R2，被安排校友Skype面试，校友很nice, 全程25分钟，只是循例提问，没有追问，问题如下：

1. 为什么读MBA

2. 为什么选择Fisher

3. 说说你的领导风格

4. 说说你的团队合作风格

5. 你所崇拜的领导者是谁？为什么？

6. 说明你坚持不懈(persistence)的事例

7. 个人生活目标

8. 最近两年来，有哪些新产品的出现改变了人们的生活？举例说明

9. any question?


面试后自我感觉发挥得很一般，特别是第8个问题卡住了，没答上来，不过校友大使非常随和，不断说，it is OK. It doesn't matter. 不过总算也是结束了，听天由命吧。在这得到很多，心存感激，希望我的面试经验能给后来申请的同学们一些帮助。Good luck, everybody!

myice

我是12.15提交的全部材料，2.21收到invitation to interview, 然后约的是2.26面的。别着急，说不定很快就有消息了。Good luck!

什么时候发现自己要读MBA
在工作中，你遇到有人与你意见严重不一致的时候，你怎么处理的
你觉得哪个企业是你眼中的成功和具有创新能力的企业，你觉得什么特质使它成为这样的企业
告诉你心目中的一个伟大的leader 以及原因
你对哪一个行业和领域最感兴趣，为什么
你希望从MBA中获得什么
你有没有跟不同文化、背景的人一起工作的经历，这个经历带给你什么
到美国学习会进入一个不同的文化氛围和环境，你觉得自己可以处理好这个变化吗？你用什么方式去释放自己在这个过程中的压力
why MBA
why Fisher
my leadership experiences
why I choose to apply for Fisher since I also applied for Emory? What did I think was the difference between Fisher and Emory?
然后是interviewer分享自己的经历.

myice

fisher 的面题都是针对每个人的我感觉，你的BACKGROUND不一样，你的简历不一样，他问了就不一样

我感觉他们问我的题目都是针对我设计好了的，我原来看面经想了一些的题目没怎么问到，除了WHY MBA之类GENERAL的

而且题目喜欢你说了什么然后追问了一下。

上次面我的是南非GG，本科毕业的第一家公司和我一样，所以我想这也可能是为什么他来面我吧很有趣的说,他讲他的经历说了20分钟！我狂晕！
