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

"Marketing is the key to the growth and success of any organization. This field has always attracted me because it requires a combination of creativity, strategic and analytic ability – the qualities that a marketing guy must possess."

Justify your decision to pursue the MBA programme?

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:

Question: “Tell me something about yourself?"

This is the first question that can make or break the chance of getting the job. This question conveys a lot to the interviewing panel and many of them take a decision there and then- to accept or to reject.

Interviews are of different types and any of these could be format of an MBA institute.

Patterned Interviews:

Highly structured, systematic. Same questions asked to each candidate in order to compare. Often used to initially screen applicants. Frequently used during on-campus interviews.
