Cornell Johnson 电话面试

我申请的是1Y的AMBA，昨天电话面试，问题都很传统，明显的按模板问问题。

Go through your resume;

Career goal after MBA;

Why MBA;

Why Johnson;

How to deal with conflict;

Your leadership story;

What clubs or organization you are interested in;

What's your weakness;

Other schools applied;

Any question to ask.


比较特别的地方是问了很多关于我现在的工作，负责什么，怎么考核，举例说明等。可能因为我工作时间比较长，最后一份工作也比较特殊吧。

面试官是Debbie，应该算Admin吧，人特别nice，但说话基本不带感情，很难判断她的态度，很职业的面试官。我的account manager也是Heidi，好像很多人都是她负责联系，人不错。我没收到这几天大家讨论的christmas card，但我想收到不收到都不说明什么问题，不要担心，学校管理应该还没先进到可以区别性的群发邮件。

一直潜水，发点东西赞赞RP。祝大家好运，也祝自己好运。

3、HOW TO PERSUADGE SOMEONE
4、HOW TO PERFORM AS A TEAM MEMBER
5、LEADSHIP STYLE, WEAKNESS OF THIS STYLE?

Adcom说他们是有点慢，第二轮decision deadline的时候大概还有15个左右的人没有面，所以就拖到了现在。
所以R3的人不要急啦，好好准备准备电面吧，多半没有alumni选择的。
看来我是人来疯那种的，电面太不适合我了。

Please do not submit an application before June 1 (May 1 for AMBA program). Note the Johnson School does not allow US student loans to be used on a declaration of finances form.

Global Student Loan Corporation (GSLC) and HSBC have designed an international student loan program to provide funding specifically to students from India to attend U.S. schools. This solution enables you to borrow funds to cover the complete cost of education - tuition, room, board, books and equipment. A U.S. cosigner is not required but you do need a cosigner from your home country. Visit www.GlobalSLC.com to view loan terms and conditions and to start your loan application!

International students also have the option to borrow through a US lender with a credit worthy US or permanent resident co-signer. A co-signer loan may carry a lower interest rate.

We have a neutral lender list which students from Cornell have previously borrowed through. Students may choose any lender, including one not on our list:

Chase Select offers a loan program for international students with a U.S. social security number and a credit-worthy U.S. citizen cosigner or U.S. permanent resident cosigner. The rate is determined by the cosigner's credit history. Visit their website at http://chaseselectloans.com/
