My interviewer began the questions by asking me to explain what my prior employer does, my contributions there and why I decided to move to my current job. Then she asked why MBA now and why Sloan. She followed up with whether I would return to my employer after graduation, and I told her my manager is open to it and I am definitely open to it.
Then she asked three behavioral questions – a time when I had to rally a team and a time when I had to say “no” to a boss. Then she asked about a time when one of my ideas was rejected and what I did. I talked about the CFO of one of our departments rejecting one of my suggestions for a presentation. She followed up by asking how my relationship with this person is now.
We ended by her asking if I had any questions for her. I asked her to talk about the changes she’s seen at the school and any future changes at Sloan in the near term. Overall I think it went pretty smoothly and was pretty casual.
