Hi Phalgun,

All the best for your interview. what time is it?? do post your experience..

Hi All,
First of all thanks a lot for the wishes Apurva. I just finished my Interview with Patrick McCarthy, Associate Director of Admissions & Recruiting scheduled at 8.30 PM. The interview went for about 40 min.

The questions started from the college education, school education, leadership at college, work obtained at college, reason for chosing to work there, leadership and responsibilities at work, positives and negatives of self, what diversity you bring to Carlson and what you expect out of Carlson. The questions may be worded differently but the answers you need to give match to the above mentioned

A very friendly talk, discusses our application and essays. Please let me know if you have any more questions.

He said they had loads of applications this time so do your best guys

All the best Apurva and Amol. Let me know how your interview went.

Thanks and Regards
Phalgun
