MBA PERSONAL INTERVIEW- TOPICS FOR PREPARATION

MBA PERSONAL INTERVIEW- TOPICS FOR PREPARATION

· Aastha Jaiswal

The journey to the top B-schools in the country starts from the preparation of the CAT examination but does not end with it. The next round is the one that will make or break the deal- WAT/GD and PI (Personal Interview) accounting for more than 50% (ranging 30-50% across institutions) of the weightage for the last and the final selection of the deserving candidates, if they want to convert their IIM calls. (You get a call on the basis of your CAT score)

IMPORTANCE

The PI round is the final round and perhaps the most important one as well. A general advice to students will be to start preparing for the PI rounds as soon as they are done with their CAT exam. This round tests your emotional intelligence, your inter personal skills in communication and interaction, logical reasoning, patience and composure. It tests your stress management skill, ability to work under pressure and decisive skills. There have been many cases where brilliant students with 90+ percentile have not got in, because of their poor performance in the personal interview round. Your admission to the top B schools hence highly depends on your interview performance.

WHAT DOES PI CONSIST OF?

The interview panel usually consists of three or four business experts, who might even turn to be your future professors if you nail the interview round.

· Duration- 15-20 minutes

· Subject matter- About yourself, about your educational details, national politics, even your hobbies, interests, etc.

The ‘About yourself’ question is very important since this question mainly decides what and how the next 15 mins of your interview will proceed.

MBA PI TIPS

· Stay calm, confident and greet the panellists with a warm welcoming smile.

· If you are not sure about an answer, be humble and tell them that you don’t know the answer. Being humble and to the point goes a long way in interviews.

· Always sport a smile and do not excessively defend your point of view. Respecting others’ views and showing your point will win you points in the PI round.

· When talking to the panellists, always maintain eye-to-eye contact.

TOPICS TO PREPARE

· So, (your name), tell us something about yourself

· Why this institute? You could have applied to others.

· Tell us about your biggest achievement and why is it so?

· What do you consider to be your strengths? Weaknesses?

· According to you, what are your long term goals?

· Where do you see yourself in the next 5 years?

· Why MBA? What do you want to do after an MBA?

· Why did you choose Marketing/Finance/Human Resource?

· Tell us about your work experience and what did you learn there.

· Tell us about your failures, and how do you cope with them?

· Any hobbies or interests?

· How will you define your personality?

· As a leader, what would you advise to your fellow team members?

· What is the difference between an employer and a leader?

· What were your favourite subjects during graduation?

· What made you choose an MBA after graduating from (your field) background?

GENERAL KNOWLEDGE

· Your personal take and views on Social Media

· Views on climate and environmental change

· NRC/CAA

· Covid-19 Crisis and related.

· Indian Economy

· Questions on your graduation subjects.

· Most pressing issues at present

· News, issues and views on the most heated topic of discussion in your city/town.

This is not an exhaustive list. More research is expected to done by the student, going through articles, improving their communication skills, and learning how to keep their composure in the most stressful moments during the interview round. The one who overcomes and masters all the above, will be able to convert their B school calls.

“Success is no accident. It is hard work, perseverance, learning, studying, sacrifice, and most of all, love of what you are doing or learning to do.” - Pele

FULL FORM OF MBBS

FULL FORM OF MBBS

The full form of MBBS has shown variations over different languages. In English language, it means Bachelor of Medicine and Bachelor of Surgery, while in the Latin language, it translates to Medicinae Baccalaureus, Baccalaureus Chirurgiae. However, the most recent and updated translation of MBBS gives us Medicinae Baccalaureus and Bachelor of Surgery (MBBS), from the combined Latin and English versions. Students on completion of their Medical School graduation are awarded the MBBS degree. The awarded degree varies from country to country which can be explained from the example of the colleges in China, where the fellow students are awarded with Bachelor of Medicine (BMED). The only thing common and agreed upon widely is the awarding of the graduated medical students with an MBBS degree or an equivalent of it.

HOW TO PURSUE MBBS

Out of the numerous ways a student may enrol for admission in the MBBS course, the most efficient as well as necessary condition to practice medical science in a country like India is the NEET examination for MBBS [ National Eligibility-cum-Entrance Test] conducted by the Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE). India has always believed in an education centric system and hence has placed unbending, firm and disciplined curriculum guidelines in the MBBS course of five years for the aspiring students. Indian Institutes failing to adhere to the guidelines end up at the receiving end of the Medical Council of India, which includes withdrawal of its official recognition from the country.

Among the different ways of pursuing MBBS, one way is abroad education. Every year, students in numbers of lakhs appear for the MBBS exam, clear the NEET exam, but often do not get admission in their college of preference. The best option for such students is to send in applications abroad keeping in mind their MBBS college preferences. Nepal and Bangladesh are among the many countries abroad that offer MBBS courses similar to that of India.

MBBS SUBJECTS

The first year of MBBS offers three main subjects to its students- Anatomy, Biochemistry and Physiology. Pathology, Pharmacology, Microbiology and Forensic Medicine are the four subjects being offered in the second year of the MBBS course. The second last year of MBBS course provides the students with the clinical subjects of Preventive and Social Medicine, ENT and Ophthalmology. The fourth and the final year of this course offers Medicine, Surgery, Paediatrics and Gynaecology and Obstetrics. This is followed by a one-year mandatory internship at the end of the MBBS course. Apart from the number of years of the course, a similar pattern has been found in the foreign medical institutes.

CAREER OPTIONS AFTER MBBS

The MBBS degree includes a thorough study, analysis and practise of the topics of Anatomy, Pharmacology, Pathology, along with Community Health and Medicine, Paediatrics, and Surgery. The vast variety of specialisations in front of the students gives them the opportunity and interest to complete their majors and practise medicine.

Out of the many available specialisations, Nephrology, Cardiology, Gynaecology, General Surgery, Organ Transplant, Anaesthesiology, and Endocrine are some of the career specialisations for MBBS aspiring students.

During their one-year mandatory internship, the students can work either at hospitals, or in health care centres, dispensaries, taking up the roles of medical assistants, intern practitioner, consultants and physicians. They can also engage themselves with the Government and help the society in general, with their medical expertise and conduct public health awareness programmes and conferences on diseases, medicines, health and fitness, etc. This provides them a brilliant exposure and helps them develop and hone the skills needed to practise in the real medical world as a doctor.

After the successful completion of their internships, the students will be registered as doctors under the Medical Council Of India and will soon receive their medical licenses. The new doctors may next decide on their medium of practise- as healthcare doctors or pursue higher education (MD/MS) in the medical field. As for the latter condition, they may still work as research professionals at pharmaceuticals alongside their higher education. For Central Government jobs, the students must take the Combined Medical Services Examination, for employment opportunities at central government organisations like hospitals, railways, defence sector and also with the Local and State Governments.
