1.2. A noun is a word used to refer to the name of people, animals, objects,
substances, states, events, ideas and feelings. A noun functions as a subject or object
of a verb and can be modified by an adjective.

Verb: a word that shows action or state of being. Remember, a
verb is something you can do, or it can express a state of being or
existence. For example, run, jump, sit, learn are actions that a
subject can do. Verbs can also be linking verbs, which associate
(or link) the subject of the sentence to the subject complement, a
word that renames or describes the subject through the verb
3

itself. Linking verbs include all forms of the verb "to be" when they
Page

are not helping the main verb and any verb like "seem",
"become", "appear", or any verb that implies equality between two
subjective concepts.

what conditions. Adjectives and adverbs can appear in the form of
single words, phrases, or clauses.

like surprise or shock or disappointment. They are words that
are thrust into the midst of the sentence (hence, interjected).

Conjunctions are words that join words, phrases, or clauses.


The most common are the coordinating conjunctions (and, or, but,
nor, for, yet, and therefore) and subordinating conjunctions, which
are those words that join dependent clauses to main clauses in
complex sentences (since, when, where, if, although, etc.) 31

November 21st, 20--

Alicia Hathoway
14 Sparks Rd
Arrington, Tennessee, 37014

Dear Ms. Hathoway:

Forthcoming Price Change

Season tickets for this year's symphony are going on sale next month
and we wanted you to be among the first to know.

As you probably know, rental prices have skyrocketed throughout


Tennessee this year. Due to our increase in rent at the Arrington
Forum, we are finding it necessary to raise the price of our season
tickets from $228 to $275. Single viewing tickets will also be subject
to a price increase.

We hope that you will consider purchasing season tickets for next year
despite this change. The Arrington Symphony has been together for
84

23 years, and relies on season-ticket holders to fill 25% of the seating


Page

RAGGUNATH - 9290452831 Page 84


at each event. Without your support the Arrington Symphony could be
forced into retirement before its 25th anniversary.

To purchase tickets for the 20-- season, please visit our website at
www.arringtonsymphony.net, or call the ticket agent representative at
(615) 395-8750.

We look forward to having you in our audience again next year.

Yours truly,

PERSONALINTERVIEW

Personal Interview
Once you submit your application to business school, the admissions committee will
conduct a preliminary screening based upon your undergraduate GPA and
98

CAT/MAT/XAT/Etc. scores. If you meet a pre-determined "academic cutoff," you will


likely be invited for a personal interview to further probe your suitability for that
Page

RAGGUNATH - 9290452831 Page 98


particular business school.

The personal interview is a critical step in the admissions process and should not be
taken lightly; most MBA programs will not accept a candidate without meeting him/her
in person. A personal interview is aimed at knowing a candidate more intimately -
assessing the clarity of thinking process, future goals and the 'fit' with the B-school. It
provides the admission committee of a b-school to evaluate your interpersonal and soft
skills.

Personal Interview can also turn out to be an opportunity to 'sell' yourself. While
intimidating for some MBA-hopefuls, the personal interview represents a prime
opportunity. Interview allows you the chance not only to put a face and personality to
the name and credentials on your application file, but also to express your academic,
personal, and professional accomplishments, experiences, and intentions.

The focus of a B-school interview can range from specific questions about your job to
broad discussions on life. Approach the interview as a conversation to be enjoyed, not
as a question-and-answer ordeal. It may be about your hobbies - your recent cross-
country trip. This doesn't mean that the interviewers are not serious. It just means that
you're being sized up as a person and a future professional in all your dimensions.

On the other hand, the PI is an opportunity for the b-school to question you about your
application, your autobiographical sketch or any issues on your transcripts or entrance
test scores. Your interviewer wants to learn what you are like as a person and how well
you respond and communicate. We want to understand your values, how you think and
how well you handle yourself under pressure.

One and all b-school is committed to admit students who are able to handle the rigors
of business school on an academic, personal, physical and psychological basis. Your
interview is your opportunity to convince the admission committee that you are up to
the challenge you are expected to face in future.

Interview - an integral part of the B-School admissions process.

The admissions process of some business schools requires that the MBA applicant
attends a mandatory interview. These mandatory interviews are usually conducted as in
person ones. If you are an international applicant and the business school has not been
able to either send its representative or identify any alumni in your country to conduct
the interview in person, the interview is conducted over the phone or through web
99

conference. Again, an in-person interview is generally recommended as you can build


Page

RAGGUNATH - 9290452831 Page 99


rapport and use it to get feedback to determine your fit for the particular program.

What does the PI tries to test?

The personal interview process aim to test the 'views' expressed by a candidate during
submission of the application or through a free-wheeling discussion around one's bio-
data given in the application form."

A few 'knowledge-dipstick' questions on one's basic academic background might also be


fielded to assess the depth and accuracy of existing knowledge. A few basic General
Knowledge questions may also be asked. B-Schools also give importance to consistent
academic performance as it is indicative of academic discipline and ethos one is
required to have to survive in the rigorous competition.

According to experts, Personal Interview stresses on the following areas:

 Goal Clarity
 Knowledge
 Communication Skills
 Personality traits

Goal Clarity
"Why do want to do an MBA? How does it fit into your career goals? What do you wish
to do after your MBA?" - These are some hard questions that you will have to answer
almost invariably in all Interviews. These questions search the 'inner motivations' of a
candidate, and there are no 'right answers'. The only way to answer these questions is
to introspect: what excites and motivates you; what makes you perform your best;
what would you really like to do in your life, and how do you genuinely see an MBA
helping. Tough questions, but answering them honestly is critical for your success!

'Why MBA?' is the most important question that MBA aspirants need to answer. There is
no "good answer" for this. The answer needs to be your answer. In other words, you
need to think deeply, introspect and find out what it is that really drives you, that really
sends a shiver of excitement down your spine when you think of achieving it. It is only
this excitement and this drive that can convince the interview panel about your answer
rather than any 'manufactured' answer by any test prep faculty.

Also "Why do you think now is the right time to pursue an MBA?", "How will you fit into
100

our program?" And "What will you do after you graduate?" are the key questions for
every interview candidate. Interviewers are looking for responses incorporating specific
Page

RAGGUNATH - 9290452831 Page 100


examples from your academic, personal, and professional experiences. Further, they
want to know the reasons behind your major life decisions.

So put on your thinking cap, do some soul searching and then jot down the answers to
'what's your goal' questions.

Domain Knowledge

Given that a good MBA is a demanding program, B-schools would like to know how you
will be able to cope up with the academics and the extra-curricular 24 x 7 demands of
your new campus. They are also keen to assess how you have utilized the earlier
learning opportunities.

Be prepared to discuss different specialty areas in business and their responsibilities.


Interviewers will also expect you to discuss current issues in business, including the
economy, taxation, foreign competition, the role of technology and ethical challenges in
the field.

Interestingly, it is not just about knowledge and answering the questions but also
'leading' the interview panel. Anything you say opens the doors to new lines of
questioning and discussion, so make sure you know where you are leading the
interview. Be careful about the gates you open, and be very sure you have in-depth
knowledge about whatever you mention.

For e.g. if you say you have an avid interest in Badminton, be ready for questions
pertaining to Prakash Padukone, Deepika Padukone, plastic shuttles v/s feather
shuttles, Saina Nehwal etc. It is advisable to brush up 2-3 subjects from your
graduation thoroughly if you are a student fresh out of college. Also, contextual
knowledge of the environment around you as well as "general knowledge" comes quite
handy.

Brush up on your area of specialization/ subjects at graduation. Account for breaks, if


any. Take pains to know about the company you work for; your place in the scheme of
things and your contribution. Since 'Extracurricular' would comprise activities other
than academics and work life, list those activities, preferably recent, that you have
participated in or initiated. Be clear about what you do in your leisure hours.
Preparation for general awareness questions is an ongoing exercise.
101

Communication Skills
Page

RAGGUNATH - 9290452831 Page 101


Your speaking and listening skills become very important than the often tested reading
and writing skills. As simple as it may sound, good communication strategy is quite
simple. Listen to the question keenly to understand it well, and then offer a precise
answer. If you don't know the answer, no bluffing the panel please! The experts are too
experienced to notice this and can get switched off.

While speaking, the biggest sin you can commit is beating around the bush and being
too verbose. Remember, panel can easily interpret these "tactics" on your part to be
lack of clarity or a deliberate attempt to obfuscate your lack of knowledge. Also, while
answering questions, please remember it is not a quiz and you can actually pause and
collect your thoughts before answering, if required.

Preparation Strategy

To be honest, it is not at all tough to 'prepare' for an interview as you only have to
analyze yourself because all the answer an interview board seeks are within you.
Although, practice for an interview session should ideally begin, as soon as you make
up your mind for pursuing management education. However, you should use the few
weeks and months before the interview to revisit and update your knowledge base, and
crystallize your reasoning and thinking process on your career and life goals.

Reading newspapers and keeping updated with all the major happenings does help a
lot. Revising the concepts, at least from courses one liked or did well in, from under
graduation is required.

Attend mock GD sessions and giving 2-3 mock interviews. Importantly, preparing for
GD/PI sessions is a good time to reflect and introspect on what are one's career goals
and the reasons why one is opting for management career, and one should make use of
this opportunity.

First steps on how to approach an interview?

Do your homework

Have well thought out answers for questions such as "What are your strengths? Why
102

are you right for that particular business school? Why is that particular program right
for you?" It shows organization and forethought if you know some specifics about the
Page

RAGGUNATH - 9290452831 Page 102


program to which you are applying and can explain why those features fit well with
your career goals.

For example, if you are applying to the Xavier Labour Relation Institute (XLRI), through
some simple research you will discover that they are strong in Human Resource
Development. Perhaps, you have worked with a recruitment company or have been a
trainer in an institute. Relate these in the interview.

Don't Waste Time

Don't waste time discussing things that are already indicated on your application. You
can elaborate if the topic illustrates something about your character and preparedness
for the b-school experience, but do not be redundant.

Remember that the first impression you create is very important. When asked to say
"something about yourself", most candidates just blurt out their schooling, college,
marks and qualifications. All this is already there in the application. Why tell the
interviewer something he/she already knows. Ideally, you would want to use this
opportunity to show how you are different from the thousands of other applicants, not
to blend in to the crowd.

A final word on approaching this question. After you have said what you have to say -
don't venture any further. Don't drone. You just might say something foolish.
Sometimes interviewers don't interrupt in order to give the candidate the impression
that he has not spoken enough. This is just a stress/error inducing tactic. Don't fall for
it. If the pause gets too awkward for your liking, just add something very politely like,
"Is there something specific that you would like to know about me?"

What you'll Be Asked?

You should be prepared for these potential areas of questioning:

 Your childhood, personality, family, college life, hobbies, sports and outside
interests
 Your professional and leadership experience
 Your career goals, political views and breadth of business knowledge
 Your motivation to obtain an MBA; why now, why our school
103

Be prepared for a wide range of questions, from casual inquiries about your family to
Page

RAGGUNATH - 9290452831 Page 103


probing questions about ethical/legal issues. Also be prepared for general questions
about current events and items of interest in popular culture. Nothing is more
disheartening than interviewing an "academic genius" who doesn't know who is the
Deputy Prime Minister or Vice -President of the Country.

How an interview commences?

A typical interview covers more than one theme. You are generally asked to first
introduce yourself to the panel members. Remember that this is your opportunity to
'lead' the interview into areas that you are comfortable with or to topics that you wish
to discuss.

It is quite important to highlight your achievements, whether academic or extra-


curricular, in your introduction itself. Don't wait for the panel members to specifically
ask you about them. Other things that you could mention in your introduction are your
family and academic background, hobbies and interests, goals and aims in life, your
strengths and weaknesses etc.

In fact, you could say almost anything as long as it is relevant, in the sense, that it
reveals something about you as a person.

Academics/ Work experience

Interviews also centre on questions pertaining to academics, especially for all the
freshers. Once again, it is hardly a good strategy to open your books just a few days
before the interview and try to mug up whatever you think is important for the
interview.

Try to ensure instead that you are keeping up with the subjects in your undergraduate
course, are comfortable with the basics of the course and ready to answer application-
based questions on these subjects.

If you appear to be the kind of person who picks up his books just to pass your
examinations, the interviewers are likely to probe you further to check your genuine
interest in the course you are currently pursuing and whether you, as a student, have
really taken in something.
104

Remember that the people who are interviewing you are professors; they are unlikely
Page

RAGGUNATH - 9290452831 Page 104


to be too impressed if you seem to forget everything that you are supposed to have
learnt just a few weeks/ months back!

If you have work experience, you can expect some questions around that. Besides your
role in your current organisation, be ready for questions about latest developments in
the industry/ sector that you are working in.

For example, if you work in an IT firm, you could expect questions relating to significant
developments or news pertaining to that sector, any major acquisition that has taken
place, questions like which are the four or five largest firms in the IT sector, what
different software products or solutions they offer etc. Hence, it is necessary to know
your industry/ sector well and keep yourself up-to-date with the latest developments.

Current awareness/ Business awareness

You could be asked questions pertaining to the world of business and important
developments. The more you read the more confident and comfortable you will be and
ready to answer any question that is thrown at you.

Importantly, here too, you may be able to come up with a unique insight or logic that
impresses the interviewer and wins the day for you. The candidate who has prepared
for just a few days is likely to be unable to go beyond the basic view or opinion which
the tired interviewer has already heard from other candidates s/he has interviewed
during the day.

So make sure you read the newspaper, including the business section, everyday. In
addition, reading a general magazine will also help. But, more importantly, it is crucial
for you to try and analyze developments and develop your point of view regarding
these.

Make sure that your opinion is backed with strong logic and is not just an opinion
without any substance.

 In summary, make sure you do the following while preparing for interviews:
 Read extensively and widely; and do not keep your focus or sphere of knowledge
too narrow.
 Keep up-to-date with all the latest important developments, especially the ones
pertaining to the world of business.li>
 Make sure that you keep up with your academic course as it is taught at your
105

colleges; do not try to mug up things at the last moment. Questions in your
interviews may not be limited to what you are studying in your final year only.
Page

RAGGUNATH - 9290452831 Page 105


 Think about what all you could state in response to standard interview questions.

Tips for Answering Questions Effectively

 Keep your answers short, but informative. Be prepared to offer a 4 to 6 line


answer to every question. This is enough to share a few thoughts and to
stimulate further discussion if the interviewer desires. Try to avoid simple 'yes'
and 'no' answers or responding in monosyllables. Show interest in the questions
and sincere thought in your responses.
 Avoid sounding self-centered. Cite your achievements, but demonstrate an
appropriate level of humility. When discussing professional accomplishments,
acknowledge the help and support of your teammates, mentors, teachers and
role models.
 Don't reveal insecurities. Accentuate the positive and don't dwell on the
weaknesses in your background or application. Don't give any indication that you
aren't willing and able to meet the rigors of business school. Your job on the
interview is to convince them you are the right candidate: they won't believe it if
you don't sound sure of yourself.
 Watch your tone. You'll certainly be asked a few stressor questions that are
designed to test your ability to handle conflict. Don't get defensive. Your tone
can be revealed in both the words you choose and your voice. Practice
responding to difficult questions with a friend before the big day. It will help.
 Listen carefully to the interviewer, no matter how nervous you are.
Although you'll be stressed during the interview, this isn't acceptable that you
ask the panel to repeat their question every now and then. It simply confirms
that you weren't listening, which is the kiss of death for a business school
applicant.

Interview DOs and DON'Ts

Interview DOs

 √ Dress appropriately for the institute; err on the side of being conservative to
show you take the interview seriously. Your personal grooming and cleanliness
should be impeccable.
 √ Know the exact time and location of your interview; know how long it takes to
get there, park, find a rest room to freshen up, etc.
106

 √ Arrive early; 10 minutes prior to the interview start time.


 √ Treat other people you encounter with courtesy and respect. Their opinions of
you might be solicited during admission decisions.
Page

RAGGUNATH - 9290452831 Page 106


 √ Offer a firm handshake, make eye contact, and have a friendly expression
when you are greeted by your interviewer.
 √ Listen to be sure you understand your interviewer's name and the correct
pronunciation.
 √Even when your interviewer gives you a first and last name, address your
interviewer by title Sir or Madam, until invited to do otherwise.
 √ Maintain good eye contact during the interview.
 √ Sit still in your seat; avoid fidgeting and slouching.
 √ Respond to questions and back up your statements about yourself with
specific examples whenever possible.
 √ Ask for clarification if you don't understand a question.
 √Be thorough in your responses, while being concise in your wording.
 √Be honest and be yourself - your best professional self. Dishonesty gets
discovered and is grounds for withdrawing admission offers and for rejection.
You want a good match between yourself and your future college. If you get
admitted by acting like someone other than yourself, you and your institute will
both be unhappy.
 √ Treat the interview seriously and as though you are truly interested in the
institute and the opportunity presented.
 √ Exhibit a positive attitude. The interviewer is evaluating you as a potential
corporate employee or future manager.
 √ Have intelligent questions prepared to ask the interviewer. Having done your
research about the institute in advance, ask questions which you did not find
answered in your research.
 √ Evaluate the interviewer and the institute s/he represents. An interview is a
two-way street. Conduct yourself cordially and respectfully, while thinking
critically about the way you are treated and the values and priorities of the
institute.
 √Do expect to be treated appropriately. If you believe you were treated
inappropriately or asked questions that were inappropriate or made you
uncomfortable, discuss this the panel if you are given time to clear your mind by
asking them questions else reach the admission co-coordinator of the institute or
the director.
 √ Make sure you understand the institute's next step in the admission process;
know when and from whom you should expect to hear next. Know what action
you are expected to take next, if any.
 √When the interviewer concludes the interview, offer a firm handshake and
make eye contact. Depart gracefully.
 √After the interview, make notes right away so you don't forget critical details.

Interview DON'Ts
107

 × Don't make excuses. Take responsibility for your decisions and your actions.
 × Don't make negative comments about previous professors or institute (or
others).
Page

RAGGUNATH - 9290452831 Page 107


 × Don't falsify application materials or answers to interview questions.
 × Don't treat the interview casually, as if you are just shopping around or doing
the interview for practice. This is an insult to the interviewer and to the institute.
 × Don't give the impression that you are only interested in the institute because
of its geographic location.
 × Don't give the impression you are only interested in salary you will get after
the completion of the course.
 × Don't act as though you would take admission in any institute or are desperate
for admission.
 × Don't be unprepared for typical interview questions. You may not be asked all
of them in every interview, but being unprepared looks foolish.
 × Admission in a good institute can be hard work and involve frustrations; don't
exhibit frustrations or a negative attitude in an interview.
 × Don't go to extremes with your posture; don't slouch, and don't sit rigidly on
the edge of your chair.
 × Don't assume that a female interviewer is "Mrs." or "Miss." Address her as
"Madam" unless told otherwise.
 × Don't chew gum or smell like smoke.
 × Don't allow your cell phone to sound during the interview. (If it does,
apologize quickly and ignore it.) Don't take a cell phone call. Don't look at a text
message.
 × Don't take your parents, your pet (an assistance animal is not a pet in this
circumstance), spouse, fiancé, friends or enemies to an interview. If you are not
grown up and independent enough to attend an interview alone, you're
insufficiently grown up and independent for a job.

Body language do's and don'ts for interviews

DON'T:

 × Rub the back of your head or neck. Even if you really do just have a cramp in
your neck, these gestures make you look disinterested.
 × Rub or touch your nose. This suggests that you're not being completely
honest, and it's gross.
 × Sit with your armed folded across your chest. You'll appear unfriendly and
disengaged.
 × Cross your legs and idly shake one over the other. It's distracting and shows
how uncomfortable you are.
 × Lean your body towards the door. You'll appear ready to make a mad dash for
the door.
 × Slouch back in your seat. This will make you appear disinterested and
108

unprepared.
 × Stare back blankly. This is a look people naturally adapt when they are trying
Page

RAGGUNATH - 9290452831 Page 108


to distance themselves.

DO:

 √ Sit up straight, and lean slightly forward in your chair. In addition to projecting
interest and engagement in the interaction, aligning your body's position to that
of the interviewer's shows admiration and agreement.
 √ Show your enthusiasm by keeping an interested expression. Nod and make
positive gestures in moderation to avoid looking like someone simply not
interested.
 √ Establish a comfortable amount of personal space between you and the
interviewer. Invading personal space (anything more than 20 inches) could make
the interviewer feel uncomfortable and take the focus away from your
conversation.
 √ Limit your application of colognes and perfumes. Invading aromas can arouse
allergies.
 √ If you have more than one person interviewing you at once, make sure you
briefly address both people with your gaze and return your attention to the
person who has asked you a question.
 √ Interruptions can happen. If they do, refrain from staring at your interviewer
while they address their immediate business and motion your willingness to
leave if they need privacy.
 √ Stand up and smile even if you are on a phone interview. Standing increases
your level of alertness and allows you to become more engaged in the
conversation.
 √After a few well-thought-out questions and answers with your interviewer, it's
almost over, but don't lose your cool just yet. Make sure your goodbye
handshake is just as confident now as it was going in. Keep that going while you
walk through the office building, into the elevator and onto the street. Once
safely in your car, a cab or some other measurable safe distance from the scene
of your interview, it's safe to let go.

Questions You Should Ask the Interviewer

Successful candidates always ask questions at their interviews. In fact, the questions
you ask reveal more about your suitability for business school than anything else.
Here's what your questions tell us:

 How seriously the committee is thinking about the modernization of the business
109

school and how well they understand the student's expectations?


 What is important for the institute - its own expectations or students'
satisfaction?
Page

RAGGUNATH - 9290452831 Page 109


 Apply the general information you gather about the school's particular reality
 Frame questions using your common sense and intellectual curiosity
 Ask for feedback regarding your energy level and communication skills
 Show the panel how well prepared you are (and will be in the future) for a
becoming a manager
 Your observation power should also play a role in framing relevant questions like
- What is the importance of huddle room in the institute? Or "Could the students
approach the professors after the college time for any further clarification
regarding any subject?" Etc.

General Rules for Asking Questions

 Only ask about topics you genuinely care about. You want to appear sincere and
interested, not desperate for something to say.
 Research the topic thoroughly before mentioning it so that you can engage in a
subsequent discussion. Prepare for your interview just as you would for an
exam.
 Make sure the answer isn't obvious or has already been answered.
 Ask the appropriate person. Faculty members can offer a better perspective on
certain issues than business students and vice versa.
 Watch your tone of voice and your body language. Many nervous applicants are
unintentionally rude when they ask questions, which automatically puts off the
interviewer. Be gracious and diplomatic in how you phrase your questions and
reply to responses.

Mock Interview

(Here are excerpts from the interview of few successful candidates for your reference.)

Scenario-1:
An interviewer is taking interview of a Computer Engineering student who has cleared the entrance test and
GD for admission in his college.

Interviewer: Tell me about yourself.

Student: "I was born in Gwalior, Madhya Pradesh and attended Scindia School. Ever since
110

I was a teenager, I tinkered with computers. It was my hobby, my passion, and my


way of learning. Like most kids I enjoyed computer games. When my folks gave me a
Page

RAGGUNATH - 9290452831 Page 110


computer as a reward for good marks in 10th Class, I mastered DOS, Windows, and
WordPerfect within six months. I then went on to teach myself programming basics.

By the time I passed 12th Class, I knew I wanted to study computer engineering. From
that point on, everything fell into place. My life revolved around the same. By my junior
year at Engineering College in Nagpur, I decided I wanted to work for a major IT
Company but I also wanted to master in other fields of handling business so that I can
develop an overview of expectations of the company from me. That is why I decided to
pursue MBA before joining any IT Company. I now want to graduate from this reputed
college so I can be at the forefront of starting a career into a reputed IT Company. I am
prepared to answer any questions you may have about my education and experience.

Interviewer: But you did tell me about your schooling, wasn't that all about your
education?

Student: Yes sir, I did tell you about my school and subject preferences but can tell you a
lot more about my engineering experiences and lessons I learnt from them, that is, if
you allow me.

Interviewer: Frankly speaking, I have no idea about engineering stuff as I am a commerce


student. So if you will tell me about you engineering course and all, I don't know how
will I understand them, and above all, how will I know you are speaking the right thing?

Student: Hahaha.. You surely are very frank sir, so I will also be very frank to you. What
I was about to tell you about my engineering days are just my experiences I had and
the learning I get from them so far. They have nothing to do with my engineering
course. Also, what I have heard about you from my friend's cousin, who is an alumni of
this college, is that you are the most amazing professor with remarkable diversified
knowledge base. So I can be very sure about your knowledge of computer engineering
stream.

Interviewer: OK..So you are here with a lot of research and all. hmmm.. You seem to
have done a bit of homework.

Student: Thank you for the compliment sir, I always like to be ready with my home work
as it gives you an unmatched confidence.

Interviewer: Keep this attitude for the rest of your life as well. You will be informed about
the final decision of the admission committee. All the best.

Scenario-2:

An interviewer (Mr. Dubey) taking interview of a fresher candidate (Rachit) who has cleared CAT and scored
well in GD session.

Ritesh: May I come in sir?

Mr. Dubey: Hello Ritesh, please come in. Take your seat.

Ritesh: Hello sir, Thank you.

Mr. Dubey: So you have scored 97 percentile in CAT. Congrats.. What do you think? Is it
a great achievement?

Ritesh: Thank you Sir. Yes, it is a great achievement as I had put in a real hard work in
the preparation. But at the same time it is only half a battle won.

Mr. Dubey: What are the major reasons for your success?

Ritesh: Many years ago I learned an important lesson from Mr. Dewakar Sinha, my first
most important mentor. He told me his secret to success was to 'Look at each day as a
new opportunity to be your very best. Set high goals, be honest, never say no, and be
in the company of people who share your passion for doing their best.' I've always
remembered that advice and try to live it every day. While preparing for CAT, I used to
be very self motivated, determined and honest. I really liked working hard and enjoyed
what I did and I also tried to surround myself with people who shared similar passions.
I generally thrive in such environment. I am looking forward to find same environment
in this institute.

Mr. Dubey: Why do you want to study in this institute?

Ritesh: I've always wanted to gain knowledge instead of mere earning a degree. This
institute has got several years reputation in the field of academics and a long list of
experienced and talented faculty. This was the main reason for my interest in this
institute. Also, I have been in touch with a number of alumni of this institute for their
guidance regarding my CAT preparations. I could pursue this course anywhere, but I'd
rather study in an institute whose products I trust.

Mr. Dubey: Well. Ritesh. It was nice talking to you. You will get the admission
112

department's final decision in a while.

RAGGUNATH - 9290452831 Page 112


Ritesh: Thank you sir, have a nice day.

Scenario-3:

An interviewer (Mr. Mehta) asking questions from a candidate (Nisha) who was working in a BPO part time
along with her BA. She has scored well in entrance test and GD.

Mr. Mehta: Hello Nisha, so how are you feeling today? Nervous or excited or both?

Nisha: Hello Sir (With a courteous smile). Yes sir, I am excited as well as nervous as you
can see. But I know how to handle stress as I have done it before as well.

Mr. Mehta: Really. so how do you manage stress with work?

Nisha: Stress is a part of life so one must accept it as it comes in the way. When I am
confronted with stress, I tend to find out the cause of it. There are various causes for
stress, it may be due to self reason or may be due to others too. If I see there are
people who are adding to my stress level then I believe in discussing with them and
focusing on the professional as well as personal issues that lead to such stressful
situation. So what ever be the cause, I approach it with a flow chart method, i.e.
starting with the root cause and doing the follow up. One tends to lose temper but
life/work teaches you to stay calm and use logical ways to find out the solution. This is
the only way to achieve your pre-determined goal within time frame, I believe.

Mr. Mehta: Do you have a goal? Where do you see yourself in 5 to 7 years from now?

Nisha: Setting goal is very important for me sir, so I do have set a goal for me. Although
it's certainly difficult to predict things far into the future, I know what direction I want
to develop toward. Within three years, I would like to become the very best HR
Manager for the company that hires me in the campus placement after 18 months from
now. In fact, my personal career mission statement is to become a world-class expert
for Human Resources. I will work toward becoming the expert that others rely upon.
And in doing so, I feel I will be fully prepared to take on any greater responsibilities
that might be presented in the long term.

Mr. Mehta: It feels so good to hear such motivating future plans from kids your age. I
wish you all the very best. You will soon get to know the final decision of the admission
committee.
113

Nisha: Thanks a lot for your compliment sir. Have a nice day ahead.

Scenario-4:

An interviewer (Mr. Tyagi) is in conversation with a candidate (Archana) who does not seem to be much open
to people, although her entire academic life and score in written test are commendable. But her GD
performance is not that great. Mr. Tyagi wants to examine if Archana is worth giving a chance in his institute.

Archana: May I come in Sir?

Mr. Tyagi: Please, have your seat.

Archana: Thank you sir.

Mr. Tyagi: So Archana, you are a commerce student and want to pursue finance?

Archana: Yes Sir. I have completed B. Com with Accounts Honors. I was always
interested in numbers and figures, so have decided to become a finance manager since
childhood.

Mr. Tyagi: What qualities do you feel a successful manager should have?

Archana: The key quality should be leadership--the ability to be the visionary for the
people who are working under them. The person who can set the course and direction
for subordinates. A manager should also be a positive role model for others to follow.
The highest calling of a true leader is inspiring others to reach the highest of their
abilities.

Mr. Tyagi: But Archana, what I can make out from our conversation is that you are not a
very outgoing person. Is there a reason for this or do you consider this as your
weakness?

Archana: Yes sir. you observed it very right that I am not a very extrovert person. There
is no specific reason for the same and I don't consider this as a weakness. Throughout
my academic life, I have performed the way I decided and was expected to. I never fell
short on my professors' expectation and performed my duties well. My little reserve
nature has never been a hurdle for me.

Mr. Tyagi: If I were to ask your professors to describe you, what would they say?
114

Archana: I believe they would say I'm a very devoted person, that I put my mind to the
Page

RAGGUNATH - 9290452831 Page 114


task at hand and see to it that it's accomplished. They would say that if they ever had
something that needed to be done, I was the person who they could always depend on
to see that it was accomplished. They would say that I always took a keen interest in
the subjects I was studying and always sought ways to apply the knowledge in real
world settings. And I am not just guessing what they would say, in fact, I'm quite
certain they would say those things because I have with me several letters of
recommendation from my professors, and those are their very words. I can show them
to you as well.

Mr. Tyagi: If you had to live your life over again, what would you change?

Archana: That's a good question. I realize that it can be very easy to continually look
back and wish that things had been different in the past. But I also remember that
things in the past cannot be changed, that only things in the future can be shaped.
That's why I continually strive to improve myself each and every day. That's also the
reason why I want to become the very best finance manager the company, which will
hire me, has ever had. To make positive change. And all of that is still in the future. So
in answer to your question, there isn't anything in my past that I would change. I look
only to the future to make changes in my life.

Mr. Tyagi: Well said Archana. I am very impressed I must say. I wish you all the best in
life. You can leave for the day. The final decision of the admission committee will be
conveyed to you soon. Thank you.

Archana: Thank you Sir.

Interview - Sample Questions & Suggested Answers

Justify your decision to pursue the MBA program?

Don't tell the panel that you are looking for a "challenging job in a good firm with lots of
money, status and glamour". Instead, you must convey to the interview panel that you
have made a rational and informed decision about your career choice and your intended
course of higher study. There are broadly four areas which your answer could touch
upon:

i. Career Objectives: You could talk about your career objectives and how the
115

two year MBA program will help you achieve them.


ii. Value Addition: Value addition will essentially be in two forms knowledge and
skills.
Page

RAGGUNATH - 9290452831 Page 115


iii. Background: This is where you connect your past to your future. If you are an
engineer, try and say that the MBA course and your engineering degree will help
you do your job better in the company that you will join. You should be able to
convincingly justify how your engineering qualification will help.
iv. Opportunities and Rewards: You could also at this stage mention the
opportunities that are opening up in organizations for management graduates. At
this stage mentioning superior monetary rewards for management graduates
may not be a bad idea.

Why do you think you would enjoy your chosen area of study (Eg: Marketing)?

Marketing is key to the success of any organization and the function has always
appealed to me, because it requires a combination of creativity, strategic and analytic
ability - all qualities that I feel I possess. Through discussions with some of my seniors,
I have a pretty good idea of what it's like to work toward taking up a marketing job,
and I know I will enjoy the work.

How do you spend your spare time?

I have a good collection of books of different genre and enjoy reading. In addition, I
love driving during late evenings or on rainy weekend afternoons. Also, for the last two
years I've been volunteering at the local children's hospital on Saturday mornings.

What are your strengths and your weaknesses?

First of all, take time to write down 3 of your strengths and 3 weaknesses. These are
examples from personal life; you can quote your relevant real professional life
examples.

"Since my childhood, I have a habit, if I want to go to a movie and my parents wanted


me to finish my maths homework first, then I used to solve the Math's problems first
and also I used to make sure that I do it correctly. I would not care how much effort
was involved, how much convincing was required, so my first strength is that I am a
determined person.

Secondly, I have a habit, when I take up some work; I make sure that I do it very well.
It was my dad's 25th birthday. All my family members had completed the decoration,
116

but I started when everybody finished, because I was not satisfied with the way it was
done. I worked alone for four hours and at the end of it, everyone appreciated it.
Page

RAGGUNATH - 9290452831 Page 116


Moreover, my father, for whom it was a surprise, was delighted. My second strength is
that I love perfection and I achieve it most of the times.

Now as I have told you about my strengths I would like to share with you something.
One of my strength of being a determined person is also my weakness. When I take up
some commitment, I invest so much energy, hard work and efforts in it that I
sometimes neglect my personal life, social life, health and family life. I still remember I
have not visited my very close friend since last 2 years. My strength of being a
determined person is also my weakness.

My mother tells me that I spend a lot of money. I think she is right and but from other
perspective, I think what I am doing is also right. Whenever I buy something - clothes,
watches, shoes, I buy best quality products, and good products or services are always
expensive. My second weakness is that I spend a lot of money on quality products."

The first thing you need to do prior to interviewing is assess yourself. This includes
listing your strengths and weaknesses, your accomplishments and achievements,
reviewing your strong and your weak subjects, and recording some of the key decisions
you have made in your life.

You should then review your interests, the disappointments you've encountered, your
work environment likes/dislikes, your business and personal values, your goals, needs,
restrictions, and life style preferences.

Prepare structured answers for the following potential questions.

1. Why should we admit you into our MBA program?


2. What are your strongest abilities?
3. What skills would you be bringing to the classroom?(relevant if you have job
experience)
4. What are you looking for in this program?
5. Where do you want to be in 5 years?
6. Why do you want to study in this institute?
7. What does "success" mean to you?
8. What does "failure" mean to you?
9. What are your three major accomplishments?
10. What have you disliked in your past jobs? (If you have worked in more than one
organization)
11. What kinds of people do you enjoy working with? (If you possess work
117

experience)
12. What kinds of people frustrate you?
Page

RAGGUNATH - 9290452831 Page 117


13. How long before you can make a contribution (Not monetary) to the institute?
14. In the past year, what have you been dissatisfied about in your performance?
15. What according to you is your ideal job and how will this program help you
realize the same?
16. What can you tell me about your past bosses? (If you have work experience)
17. Which is more important to you: money or the type of job?
18. What have you learned from your activities in college?
19. Were your extracurricular activities worth the time you put into them?
20. What have they taught you?
21. What qualities should a successful manager possess?
22. What two attributes are most important in your job?
23. What major problem have you encountered and how did you deal with it?
24. What have you done that you consider creative?
25. Who do you admire? Why?
26. What do you get passionate about?
27. What courses are you taking?
