Has anyone else had an interview with Kellogg yet? I just submitted my application for round 1 on Sunday, and my off-campus interview (I visited 3 weeks ago, so didn't feel the need to fly back to Evanston for the interview) was yesterday (Monday, Sept. 24th 2012).
I had done a lot of reading about what kind of questions would be asked. I agree with all the information posted, in that we covered my resume, why an MBA, why now, and why Kellogg, all of which I felt prepared for. However, I saw a common theme in each post about the interviews was that there would be a few questions that came out of left field. Mine included 'What confuses you most?' and 'How would your best friend describe you?'. There were a few others that I hadn't already come up with an answer for ahead of time. I think I quickly came up with okay answers, but I'm still a little rattled.
So did anyone else have a similar experience? I'd love to commiserate. This is the only interview I've had so far (clearly, since it's so early) and Kellogg is my first choice right now, so I'm really hoping it went well.
