Interview:
Greeted everyone as I entered.
M2: So, Aishanya, your name is very long. Can we call you Aish?
Me: Yes.
F: Do you have a pet name? What does your parents call you at home?
Me: I have but it's very embarrassing. My pet name is Aishu.
M2: That's a pretty name. Don't worry, we won't call you Aishu. So, Aish, tell us something about yourself.
Me: Gave the prepared answer.
M1: Okay. Time for extempore. Your topic is, “Human beings are selfish by nature.” You have 20 seconds to think and 1 min to speak.
Me: I took the stance that humans are indeed selfish and gave the example of a simple friendship which is a selfish transaction at its core. Mentioned that selfishness is a fundamental characteristic of humans but many people like Mother Teresa went against this innate nature and worked for the welfare of society.
M2: So, according to you, we are all selfish. That's the start of an MBA. Your 50% MBA is done. (Laughs)
You have mentioned a lot of good things about FMS in your SOP. And you have also mentioned that you do a lot of social work. We, here at FMS, are very selfish and don't believe in social work. Tell me how FMS would help you in this.
Me: Mentioned about the silent auction that FMS conducts to raise money for NGOs which is something no other college does as far as I am aware. Also, since, I have only seen silent auctions on TV, I had always wanted to be a part of something like that.
Everyone was laughing.
F: Isne pura website padh dala! (She had read the whole website!)
Me: I did. Because I wanted to understand how I would add value to FMS and vice versa.
M2: You definitely did your homework. M1 here was the highest bidder last year.
F: You mentioned that you want to pursue Finance. Why so? Do you follow any financial news?
Me: Gave the prepared answer that since, I worked in a bank, I would like to increase my domain knowledge which would help me to grow in this sector. Yes, I follow financial news although I find it difficult to understand a lot of things because I am not from this field. But, I did follow the recent banking collapse in the US, inflation, possibilities of a recession to name a few.
F: Do you know who is the head of RBI?
Me: Shaktikanta Das
F: What's his designation?
Me: Governor
F: What are his functions? No, what are the functions of RBI?
Me: Mentioned about setting the repo rate and how it is increased to contain inflation. Also, mentioned about the government bonds which the banks sell in case they want to reduce the liquidity and buy back those bonds to infuse cash in the economy in case of recession.
F: What is recession and its impact?
Me: I gave the prepared answer since I was asked these economy and bank related questions in almost every interview.
F: What is inflation and it's types?
Me: Again gave the prepared answer. For types, I had mentioned Cost-Push and Demand-Pull inflation.
M1: What is supply chain disruption?
Me: Gave the definition and mentioned the supply chain disruption caused by Zero Covid Policy in China. I had also correlated this with demand-pull inflation.
M1: You mentioned that you write poetry.
Me: Yes, Sir.
M1: What is Ballard, Couplet and Sonnet?
Me: Told about Couplet and Sonnet. Did not know about Ballard.
M2: You are from West Bengal, right? Ballard is very famous there. You should check this out after the interview.
Me: Okay, Sir. I will Google Ballard after this interview.
M1: What style of poetry do you write?
Me: I mostly write free style since, there's a little more wriggle space than any other style.
M1: Do you know anyone who wrote English couplets?
Me: No, Sir. But Kabir used to write couplets (doha) in Hindi, specifically Braj bhasha.
M1: Alexander the Great used to write couplets in English.
Me: Oh sorry, sir. I didn't know this.
M2: I think we are done. Thank you, Aish.
Me: Greeted everyone and came out.
Interview lasted for about 10 min. Panel was very friendly and wanted to the point answer because of the shortage of time. Questions mostly revolved around the points mentioned in my SOP.
