Works at Avanti Prep MBA Admissions Consulting
Since founding Avanti Prep in 2017, I have personally prepared clients for over 300 school-specific MBA interviews. At this point, I feel like I have a PhD in MBA interviews and the subtle or not-so-subtle differences between them. This is especially true for Harvard and Stanford, for which my lifetime client Interview Prep acceptance rate is 83% — approximately 2x the baseline rate. This service includes 3-, 4-, and 5-hour options. I am offering them at a special introductory rate on Leland that is 12% to 18% less than my standard Interview Prep rates. We can use the time however you want. Here are some examples: HBS (5-hour example) · 90-min strategy session to "make sense" of HBS's unique interview format and question patterns, and begin to theorize your responses · 45-min mock interview in the style of HBS and customized to you — longer than the real thing to give you more practice · 105 mins of coaching, feedback, and response workshopping — we will actually shape and refine potential responses together (i.e., not generic feedback) · 60-min post-interview reflection brainstorming and review — due within 24 hours of completing your interview (must confirm availability) · Some clients prefer to drop the upfront strategy session in favor of doing two mock-and-feedback sessions (each 90 mins), then the reflection (60 mins) GSB (5-hour example) · 90-min strategy session to "make sense" of GSB's own uniquely probing / behavioral interview style and to select, outline, and develop your stories · 30-min mock interview in the style of GSB and customized to you, then 60 mins of coaching, feedback, and response workshopping · 30-min mock interview in the style of GSB and customized to you, then 60 mins of coaching, feedback, and response workshopping · Some clients prefer to shorten or drop the upfront strategy session in favor of doing longer mock, feedback, and workshopping sessions
Most Interview Prep offerings charge full freight for a 30-min mock and only 45 mins of feedback — this is 3 to 5 hours of actual face time together
Most Interview Prep offerings provide generic feedback — we will actually go into the weeds of *you-specific* response workshopping
Most consultants are unfamiliar with school-specific interview patterns and nuances — I have lived and breathed them full-time since 2017
Unlike other firms / consultants, I do not charge extra for HBS Interview Prep, even though it requires significant pre-work on my end
