I was asked to meet Ms Albert Kara, at 1:30PM at Taj Hotel, Mumbai. I reached before time however it took me some time to locate her in the hotel lobby. It was 5th December'07, the day of world MBA tour and there were many B school representatives who were conducting interviews.
My interview started with her casual remark that it was great that i could locate her in the rush. i observed she was a always smiling kind of lady who would not let me have a clue about her opinion of me. Her first question was 'take me through your CV, starting with the latest engagement'. It was the set question and i answered easily. Next was why MBA, that too gone okay where i elaborated on my desire to better knowledge of all function. She further queried regarding my post MBA plans, why Fisher- I did well. Then suddenly she asked me to describe a hypothetical situation where i would breach any company policy. this question caught me off guard and i said 'okie, let me think '... she said fine u can take your time...' i was unable to find in 6 - 7 seconds and she told me 'it is okie... '. I told her that there is nothing at the workplace which i can think of that might take me to break the policy rules, however there are dilemmas, which sometimes exist but never a question of policy violation. She asked me who is your role model. i answered Ratan Tata and related Tata's group's initiatives and works in the social work to connect to my long term career goals. 'Have you written your essays? ' 'Not yet but planning this week'. ' Have you taken your GMAT' ' yes i said i got 680'.she said it is good , college's average is 670 and i have a strong work experience too. She asked me whetether i have taken TOEFL, i told her my plan to take IELTS this week. She said it was nice talking and may be we see each other soon. I said thanks and did bid good bye.
Overall it was a nice interview and i look forward to write the essays for the same.
