2018.11.22 北京时间 17:30 Skype 面
刚刚结束 HEC GE 第一轮的面试,赶紧来发面经还愿!
楼主 BG:211 法专,辅修新闻,2018年毕业,目前在一家 start-up 工作,GPA 3.8,GMAT 730,大三法国交换一年,实习4段并与法国联系密切。
推荐信三封:1封国内论文导师(中国教授),2封是工作和实习时的大牛领导(法国人,其中一位是HEC校友)
面试官一名是 admission officer,坐在办公室里;一名是在巴黎一家 tech company 工作的法国校友,应该是家中或办公室。场面都非常 casual 和谐。
他俩先自我介绍,一开始网络连接不太稳定……
Admission officer 先自己念了我的信息:名字,毕业院校……所以没有自我介绍的部分……
- What do you think of your life after your graduation? - Work in innovation in the tech industry
- You studied French and journalism, why change to biz? - I wanted to be a journalist to make a better world, but found business is a more direct and practical way.
- You are working in two places at the same time? - One full-time, one volunteer.
- Do you still speak French in Shanghai? (用法语问的) - So answered in French: Oui,… (Alumni a dit très bien / very good)
- Do you want to continue the interview in French or English? - English.
- What do you want to do outside of studies in HEC? - student clubs: Start’HEC(in detail), coding camps (l'ecole 42, le wagon), salsa dance, wine culture
- You lived in Lyon, talk about the Lyon Model United Nations. - (Ah I didn’t prepare it..) I presented China, we talked about nuclear waste, I was active and got a prize, I met friends from other regions and countries, I love that multi-cultural environment.
- Do you like Lyon? - Yes, but at that time, I only discovered student life there, if I come back to Lyon, I will discover their innovation ecosystem. I met two people last week, I know they have a lot of entrepreneurial projects…
- Do you want to stay in France or come back to China? - Stay in France for 3-5 years to know more French innovation, and then bring start-ups to the Chinese market (in China)
- Any questions for us? - I asked the alumni her different feelings of working in startups (actually she worked in an incubator) and now in a tech company; 然后根据她的回答又问了 the processes in her current company is a challenge / pb for corporate innovation? Asked the admission officer about HEC incubator. (I wanted to ask if they try to internationalize their startups, but it seems he misunderstood.)
总体而言气氛非常 nice,问题都 focus 在学生自己身上。我准备了最近的新闻、科技领域的中法合作、人工智能的发展等,都没有问到。
几点体会:
1.最重要的还是简历,感觉面试官只拿着我的简历问!!之前实习和活动的细节最好过一遍,里昂模联那是一年半以前的事情啦……而且只出现在我的 honors 里
2.学校社团很重要!!HEC 很看重你将来在学生活动里的参与度 (毕竟以后其实并不会有多少课,有大把大把时间是让你用在社团里的……)
3.别紧张,听到问题停2秒钟再回答,尽量让自己的回答 structured 一点。我感觉我有些问题答的太快,可以再多涉及一些点
关于准备面试:
1. HEC其实非常贴心,收到 admissible 的通知后有一封邮件告诉你面试会涉及的问题,大致上问的就是上面这些
2. 偶然在 HEC 学生博客网站上发现的好资源: http://campus.hec.fr/the-hec-experience-blog/2018/07/24/a-guide-to-hec-interviews/
3. 找有一定经验的人 mock interview,如果认识法国朋友就更好了,毕竟思维方式比较相近。我模了两次,一次是念 LBS GMiM 和复旦双学位的法国小姐姐,见面模的,她还给我讲了一些法国人比较喜欢的小套路;第二次是 Skype,跟一位念巴政和加拿大 UBC 双学位的法国小哥哥,第一次感受了Skype 的渣画质……
4. 如果会法语的话,可以在 Google 上搜一些 HEC entretien 之类的,有法国学生的回忆,面试问题也是差不多的。还有 prepa HEC 这个网站。
我从去年就开始准备申请法国高商,考 GMAT、准备面试、择校都在 CD 上吸取了不少前辈的经验,今天终于有机会回馈了!希望这一年多来的心愿能最终成真,笔芯!
