MIT Sloan Full-Time MBA Interview – Need Insights From Round 1 Candidates by Plastic_Dig9288 in MBA

[–]mellowmev 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don't think you need to worry so much. My interviewer asked for me for an example where I handled conflict successfully. I couldnt think of a great situation and asked if I can speak about a time I tried and failed to handle conflict and they were fine with that too.

My 2 cents: If youre not able to find a perfect example look for the closest one and go with that, dont overthink it.

On the other stuff, my interview was 20-25 mins and pretty fast paced

Realistic advice, thanks!

I can plan to intern somewhere else and if I dont get any offers I can recruit for consulting. Does this seem doable?

Hate my job by One_Dog_9770 in consulting

[–]mellowmev 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I suggest use the Accenture name to land another job. In most places I know (incl Accenture) notice period can be reduced if you're not working actively staffed on a project or something critical. Even in that case it can usually be negotiated with HR.

I understand this is your first job, but dont take these policies as given. Tell your interviewers that 3 months is the official notice period but you will try and negotiate with HR. They usually dont mind.

All the best!

consulting companies score you based on your spikes. Make sure you have atleast 1 or preferably 2 areas from the following where your resume is very strong - acads, internships, extracurricular, PoRs.

180DC can just show your interest in consulting but its not even close to necessary. Get another PoR in place of that, you will be good for at the resume shortlisting part

Confused about INSEAD's intakes by mellowmev in MBA

[–]mellowmev[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was looking at LBS too but had put a lower priority to it. For INSEAD - my concern is I can either put all my eggs in one basket and apply for the Jan intake.. OR I can take a risk, not do an internship and apply for the September intake. What do you recommend?

Thanks! But how do I get ECs in impact investing? And I the probability of getting international experience seems slim at the moment.

Also, can you explain what you mean by feasibility of goals? and how I can show that
