MBA Interview Experience Of Rank 2 Holder - IIM Kozhikode Selection Process 2019

Following this was probably the best interview I’ve ever had. The interview started with the few basic questions such as tell me about yourself, Why MBA? etc. and slowly moved on towards my family business where I had been working for the past year and a half. The questions ranged from asking specifics to my broad understanding of the business as well as a small situation-based case. There were also a few questions on politics (given the election time) to see how well I kept up with current affairs. (Another tip is to always at the very least learn the names and leaders of the ruling parties in the home state of the school as well as of the neighbouring states along with any disputes the state government might be involved in – I had similar questions in my interviews at MDI and IIFT). – Throughout the process I ensured that I was relaxed, kept a smile on my face and always kept eye-contact while answering to the point and not “gassing around” (gas = globally accepted shit. Each college has its acronym for the same and “gas” belongs to IIMK).

By the time it ended, I knew I had done good and would get in 100%. Little did I realize that I would be ranked 2nd amongst 485 students who secured admission in IIM Kozhikode.
