What types of questions should candidates be prepared for in B-school interviews?
An applicant to an MBA program should prepare for an admissions interview the way you would a job interview. Make sure you do your research before you come to campus. Make sure you know why you want a Duke MBA and what you are prepared to contribute to the program. We’re not trying to trick anyone with the questions we ask in the interview. It’s a conversation about your qualifications, about what you hope to do long term, and what you bring to the table. It’s also the candidate’s opportunity to ask us questions and find out if Duke is a good fit for them.
