Indiana / Kelley MBA Interview Report: Round 3 / Second-year Student / Skpe

The following Indiana / Kelley MBA interview report was submitted to Clear Admit by a Round 3 applicant. Good luck to them!

The interview was pretty straightforward interview with a current second year student.

Typical questions that started with walking through résumé and explaining decisions on switching from job to job. Asked about leadership experiences and working in different cultures / businesses.

Then: why MBA and why Kelley? What drew me to Indiana as a state / community.

Asked about my short term goals and how the MBA would help in achieving them and finally closed with a question I had not received from any other interview: Do you think you are a smart person?
