I did both my interviews about 2 weeks ago over coffee. Both people were around same age, attended roughly 10 years ago. Similar questions as everyone else and it was very conversational. The second person drilled me a little more on background, why i made certain moves, my goals, etc. In my experience, I spent so much time being introspective during the application process that when it came to the interviews, there was not much to prepare for, it's telling the same stories as my essays. Most important is to be confident. I brought essays but neither wanted to see them. Both gave me some "positive" vibes at the end but said nothing concrete, figures ![:)]( "Smile")
Only thing that concerns me is one of my interviewers has taken a long time to send feedback so i hope it doesn't impact both the recommendation quality, or timing.
Oh well, nothing to do now but relax....interspersed with maniacally check phone and emails!
Oh and I was asked about campus choice both times and openly talked about my preference (singapore), tying in with desire to experience living/working in asia.

I now realize how INSEAD is interested to know the logic behind campus choice. and how not convincing I was during my first interview. basically, my primary objective is to land a job in management consulting, location does not really matter (Asia or CIS) since you can transfer at some point of time. I will have to articulate my logic more precisely during my next interview. i hope I will get this and some other questions from my previous interview so that I can counterbalance my weak answers from my 1st interview.
does anyone know how exactly INSEAD uses interview reports? what's their logic?
