Questions to Ask During MBA
Interview
Let’s align perspectives here – yours and the course we are opting for.
You aim here is to put them in your shoes.
Ask them if they were you with a career goal specific to yours in a niche sector, what would the top 1-2
assets in the school’s MBA programme be that would be advantageous to you.
You are seeking information that supports your goals here, vital to understand that their answer here
will offer you information that can be key to your final decision.
This aspect also lets them know you are serious about achieving a specific goal of your MBA, hence,
putting forth your choice of school.
A – What would you do?
B – Campus/ School assets
 Let’s understand the offerings of the place where you will spend long days and sometimes burn the midnight
oil.
 Considering you will spend long hours at the campus during your programme journey, you must enquire
about the school’s campus and its assets that will help you gain perspective. Is it a lean campus? Or a wide
open one with a flexible working space, simulation rooms, group learning, are there support programmes for
students that school prides in, does the campus style and their offerings match your personality and needs?
What is their campus culture like – is the atmosphere more inclusive and accessible?
 Ask them about the salient features that their current students and alumni always find interesting and most
fascinatin
C – Asking the present students/ alumni
 Let’s gain more information from the alumni / current students – if you are being interviewed by them.
 B-schools set a round of interview calls, one of them is usually with an alumni or current student. This is a
great places for you to understand from another (ex) candidate how they feel about the campus,
programme, school’s overall features and more.
 Ask them how the school helped them achieve their career goals, how far have they come from where they
were prior to the MBA programme to where they are now, how tight knit is the school’s industry
networking and engagement, also how frequent is it.
D – Industry connect/ placement cell/
incubation programme
 Let’s get clarity on the placement numbers, the entrepreneurs raised and supported and how
strong are the industry ties for the school.
 Your interview is the perfect setup for you to find out the average placements number for the past
2-3 years, the highest package to the lowest package and an average – what sector hires the most,
what profiles are most sought after. All these answers should help to highlight your career path and
how the school may possibly help to achieve it.
 If you are aiming at a programme where you can seek the support of the incubation cell to raise,
grow and push the entrepreneur in you, ask them about who are the incubation industry partners,
how frequently do they meet, what are the numbers for the past 4-5 years for the incubation cell.
