Rotman 面经 with Agnes [2019.02.09]

[日期:2019-03-21] 来源:ChaseDream论坛 作者:crystal_10 [字体: ]

北京时间2月9号,凌晨一点,Agnes,面试时长30分钟。

  1. Why rotman ,other school applied
  2. Go through resume 
  3. 举个例子:在一个项目中 你本来不是领导,后来临时成为领导,怎么处理
  4. Short goals
  5. Failure
  6. Biggest achievement
  7. Tell me about a time when professional networking helped you
  8. Deal with the situation that your teammate did not contribute
  9. You want to share I didn’t ask
  10. Your questions

问题 CD 上差不多都覆盖了。

说到一半的时候,Agnes 说我是不是说太多细节了,要我说快一点,这样可以问更多问题。然后之后的三个问题,楼主说得奇快无比。最后面完,虽然说的慢,看时间才面了30分钟,楼主感觉要凉了……希望对大家有帮助,大家加油!

楼主今年申请季,差不多结束了,目前收到了另外几个 MBA。多大其实早就收到了拒信,之前一个月心情郁闷,难以自拔,突然觉得还是可以把经验放上来给大家分享的。

我通过 wechat 问了问 Agnes 觉得我失败的原因是什么,以及有什么可以改进的地方。以下是她的回复,虽然有些内容可能比较官方吧 ,但是还是符合我多大面试的基本情况的,作为经验写上来,希望对之后及明年申请的同学有帮助。

I'm glad to hear that you are proactive in seeking advice. First, I want to thank you for your hard work put into the application. In terms of the decision, it is not only from the interview but an overall assessment of all informaiton submitted as part of the application.  Certainly a large part is also to assess the English communication skills of any candidate (written and spoken). I would say in general, you can find ways to improve your spoken and written English. In the interview, it is not because you provided too much details and thus making the interview not go well. Often times it is your articulation that can be improved and thus you can therefore be more clear with how you describe an example, showcase your skillsets better with a concise message if you have a higher spoken English level (i.e. articulation, tone, choice of words, pronunciation, vocabs) and thus overall fluency. Similarly, the same applies to the video questions on Kira. And the same also applies to your effectiveness in English writing. All in all, if you want to give it another try to re-apply next year, you are certainly welcome as some students do that and then can get in after working hard to improve on certain areas. In your case, English communication would be an area to improve on and enhance your speaking ability and fluency in preparing for another application next year. Since you only worked 3 years so far, yo can still have time to prepare as many of our candidates are in the average of 4-5 years of work experiences. Another tip is to get on client work that requires English and so you can have more practice speaking and writing English to incresae fluency as it will be needed for any MBA program.

总得来说我自己觉得失败有几个原因:

1. 多大是我面试的第一个学校,可能有紧张的因素,卡壳了几次,虽然演练了2-3次吧。那天 Skype video 特别模糊,我就用 wechat 在手机上面试的,手机屏幕真挺小的,所以我觉得面试互动啥的还是受影响的,建议大家之后面试还是尽量用电脑面交流会好一些。

2. 每个问题回答的非必要信息太多了,我大概回忆了一下,当时一个问题的回答时间在4分钟左右,确实太长了,面试官会觉得太啰嗦,没有切中重点。

总结下来,我觉得准备面试的时候 :

(1)跟面试官的互动还是很重要的,有时候通过视频可以看到面试官的表情和动作,意识到说太多了,就赶紧收尾,进入下一个问题;

(2)其次每个问题尽量控制在1-2分钟(麦马面试培训的时候,也建议是这个时长),不要超过2分半;当面试官对之前的回答追问的时候,再去扩展回答,我觉得是比较好的处理方式;

(3)多准备例子:尽量覆盖工作、业余生活、学业,不要集中于某一方面,这样会给面试官塑造一个比较真实的人设。我觉得多大的面试,我准备的例子太集中于工作方面了,主要是我当时觉得 MBA 申请主要还是看工作经验,但是其实这样并不好,也很难给面试官留下印象。所以还是那句话:Be yourself。

以上内容只根据楼主个人情况,大家酌情参考。不对或者有说的过于偏激绝对的地方,欢迎指正。
