哈佛商学院面试内幕

哈佛商学院面试内幕

John A. Byrne 2013年07月29日
能够走到哈佛商学院面试官的面前可以算是一只脚踏进了哈佛,但也有不少人倒在了哈佛的门槛上。哈佛的面试到底怎么进行?面试官都会问那些问题?怎么回答才会加分?穿什么衣服?住在哪里?这些问题的答案可能都会影响到最终的面试结果。现在,哈佛校报给出了内部的参考答案。

    这本指南把问题分成6个部分:经历型、当前事件型、领导力、情景问题、事业以及课程。同时,指南还提供了一些章节,可以让你的波士顿之行更有成效:去哪里、到哪里吃东西,在哪购物和住在哪的清单。

    当然,对穿着的建议也不可或缺:女士着装,指南建议颜色为西装颜色,款式建议简洁经典。“裙子的高度至少要及膝,”编辑们建议说。“鞋子应是高跟的包鞋,鞋跟高度为1至3英尺。”男士建议穿绅士款式的西装:“确保套装合身。向裁缝或你母亲咨询一下……正式面试时穿着的颜色应为:黑、灰或海军蓝。你可以选择单色或(有品的)条纹色。虽然一套好的西装能确保万无一失,备用的运动外套也是可以的。”

    克莱纳说,他的面试准备大量依赖于指南。“我从面试指南入手,列出了一个问题清单。然后根据我自己的申请和简历,加入了更具体的问题。在几周的过程里,我每天睡觉前都会思考这些问题以及我的答案。

    所以当坐下来面试的时候,他觉得准备已经很充足了。“直到快结束的时候,我还没有机会问问题,”他回忆到。“不过她们的最后一个问题是‘在面试结束前,你还有什么想补充的?请说其中一件事。’我说:‘我真的很想到哈佛学习。这里是我的第一选择,我能在这儿看到未来。’”确实如此。(财富中文网)

    The guide divides questions into six categories: experience, current events, leadership, situational, career, and curriculum. There also are sections to make your visit to Boston productive: lists of where to go and where to eat, where to shop and where to stay.

    And, of course, there is the requisite advice on what to wear: For women, the guide recommends a suit color and style that is simple and classic. "Skirt lengths need to be at least knee length," the editors counsel. "Wear closed toed pumps and a heel height of one-to-three inches." For men, the guidance is Esquire-esque: "Make sure the suit fits properly. Ask a tailor (or your mom).... Suit color palate for the formal interview: black, gray, or navy blue. You may choose plain or (sensible) pinstripes. Reserved sport coat also works, though a good suit is fail-safe."

    Kleiner says he relied heavily on the guide to help him prepare for the interview. "I formulated a list of questions, using the interview guide as a starting point. Then, I added more specific questions based on my application and resume. Over the course of a couple of weeks, I would think about them and what my answers would be before I went to bed every night."

    So when it came to the sit down for his session, he felt prepared. "As it came to the end, I didn't get an opportunity to ask questions," he recalls. "But they gave me the last word. 'What is one thing you want to convey as your interview comes to an end?' I said that 'I really want to come to Harvard. This is my first choice. This is where I see myself.'" Indeed.
