不同學(xué)校會(huì)設(shè)計(jì)不同的面試來篩選申請(qǐng)者，有的甚至要求先進(jìn)行小組群面，再進(jìn)行單獨(dú)面試。盡管面試發(fā)的很多，但面試的淘汰率還是很高，根據(jù)學(xué)校不同，一般是面試錄取率保持在20-60%左右。所以，拿到面試通知甚至還不能篤定地說自己拿到了conditional offer。

Admissions decisions sometimes rest on how well you do during the interview.

首先，要清楚面試的核心目的。MBA項(xiàng)目的interview問題主要是了解你，而不是為了考你一個(gè)非常細(xì)節(jié)的專業(yè)知識(shí)，大家可以用story-base的思路去準(zhǔn)備，很多問題萬變不離其宗，比如tell me about yourself, what are your biggest weakness/strengths，where do you see yourself in 10 years，這類都是自我了解類型的題目。大家有必要去素材比較豐富的ChaseDream論壇搜索下這類問題的100種不同問法。以下列舉下business school最常問的若干問題：

Tell me about yourself.

Your answer should be 2-3 minutes long. Talk briefly about:

Your undergraduate education and why you chose the major you did

Your work experience and accomplishments

Your career goals

Why do you want to earn a graduate business degree?

Explain in detail your motivation for pursuing a graduate business degree and how the degree will further your career goals. Emphasize how this degree is a critical part of your career plan.

Why are you interested in this school/program?

List all the reasons the school/program is ideally suited for you, from location to faculty to coursework to the school’s connections with specific industries and companies that match your career goals.

Why should we admit you?

Talk about your academic and professional accomplishments and how they make you an ideal fit for the program. Then discuss how this specific program will help you achieve your career goals.

Talk about your accomplishments as a leader.

Have several leadership examples prepared, both from work and in your volunteer and community roles.

What are your strengths and weaknesses?

Addressing strengths is fairly easy. Pick three that you feel set you apart and that you can back up with examples. As for weaknesses, turn your shortcomings into strengths. For example, you could explain how your impatience allows you to get things done quickly.

Do you have any questions about the school or program?

Have a selection of specific program or school-related questions ready, which shows that you are a serious candidate and have done your research. Avoid questions that are easily addressed by reviewing the school’s website or print collateral.

在瀏覽了面經(jīng)里換湯不換藥的上百條問題后，你可以按照了解自我、展望未來規(guī)劃、具體經(jīng)歷能力展示案例等幾個(gè)大模塊去分類面經(jīng)題目，然后你就發(fā)現(xiàn)，然后你就會(huì)發(fā)現(xiàn)很多問題都可以用同一套答案去回答。

而說到答案，不建議去參考別人怎么回答。面經(jīng)最有效的使用方法是，默讀題目，在腦子里播放題目，模擬自己對(duì)聽到英文原題的反應(yīng)，然后自己構(gòu)建答案內(nèi)容。盡量在腦子里全部過一遍，確保自己不會(huì)在當(dāng)下全無思路。

接著，每天訓(xùn)練。這一個(gè)環(huán)節(jié)類似于PS，需要在面試中抓取自己過往經(jīng)歷中的閃光點(diǎn)，侃侃而談，描述自己的過去，展現(xiàn)自己思維的流暢和為人的氣質(zhì)。

The best strategy for approaching an interview is by preparing and practicing for your interview.

記住，背答案的你和從容不迫的你會(huì)在考官心目中留下不同的印象分，你的英語可以有些許語法和口語問題，但盡量在氣場(chǎng)上做到從容、不緊張、不尷尬。要知道, MBA本身錄取的是有一定工作經(jīng)歷的職場(chǎng)人士，如果對(duì)著一個(gè)面試官犯緊張，那么即使你把你想說的全部事無巨細(xì)地表達(dá)到了，也會(huì)給自己扣分。

掌握上述思路后，有必要通過背誦來練習(xí)一則確定百搭的小故事，也可以打亂順序，每天即興對(duì)著鏡子來一段自我介紹或者經(jīng)歷描述或者見個(gè)小段子，都能讓自己的演說口才變得流利且從容不迫，當(dāng)然最好的訓(xùn)練方式就是mock interview。
