I did have a chat with a friend who's currently studying in Simon. She did say Simon isnt all that great for IB but Corp Fin is its strength. The one prob with Simon is that it starts later than the other schools, so they are late in starting their recruitment process. So if you do get in, it would be advisable to keep your resume and cover letters ready before you get there. |
Hi there!
Had my interview today. It was at 4:45 AM! I tried sleeping at 11 but couldnt manage to do so. This thing has become a common phenomenon nowadays with all these face to face interviews in the morning.
So, when it struck 2 in the morning I decided not to sleep at all. Even 2-3 alarm clocks have failed to wake me up in the past. So, I watched "A mighty heart" and stayed awake throughout the night. Called the school a little early was asked to call back in exactly "8" minutes.
The alumni who interviewed me was from the 2003 class. The questions were pretty simple.
1. Take me through your resume
2. Why did you change your job despite doing so well.
3. How do you measure your success?
4. Why Now?
5 Why Simon?
6. Any questions?
7. How do handle culture shocks? Will you be adjust in the US environment?
I took the liberty to tell her my long and short term goals, and my intended concentrations even though she had not asked specifically.
Overall the interview went fine. I am glad I was in good mental shape at such wee hours of the morning!
ATB to all applicants.
