Package Description:

I'll take you through a best-in-class interview playbook to help you maximize your prep. I've built out a 2024 Comprehensive Interview Guide to give you highly structured interview simulations to nail your interview -- with concrete feedback you can apply right away. You can find the interview guide on Leland+ if you'd like your own copy, and I've provided details below on the kinds of things we'll cover in our sessions to give you the clearest possible view: https://plus.joinleland.com/path-player?courseid=mba&unit=66357a32e4dbc3c29b04dfb6Unit The 2024 Interview Guide -- and my approach -- is structured to capture the most important questions you’ll encounter, with second-order questions (where appropriate) to help you feel fully prepared come interview day. There are an infinite number of permutations that could be asked during many interview contexts (and this guide is not intended to capture every single question). When you can map your professional experiences confidently across the questions listed below, you’ll be more than prepared for any interview with any program. #1 Way to Prep: To maximize this style of preparation, work on your answers aloud. You can do so alone, with a trained coach (or both) to workshop your answers as they’re spoken – not as you imagine they’d be spoken. Live practice and rehearsal will accelerate (a) how quickly you identify gaps in your preparation, (b) your ability to accurately map experiences to answer the question at hand, and (c) get a feel for which of your “stories” or experiences can be flexibly applied to multiple questions or question categories. How This Document is Organized (wha how our interview sessions will entail): this document covers questions that (a) set the stage, (b) “negative valance” questions – questions that lean negative / ask about a challenge, (c) “positive valence” questions – questions which refer to aspirations, leadership, and success. It then moves into questions that (d) aim to understand your motivations and decision-making, such as “Why X School / Program”, “Why did you change jobs at this point in your career?” and so on. A larger question bank concludes this document for comprehensiveness, but the hope is that the way this document is organized helps you more easily develop your stories, prioritize your preparation, and develop your answers in a way that’s easy to remember on interview day
