My personal experience into entering IMT Ghaziabad
We have to apply for the college before the cat exam. Sometimes the application form will also be released after the cat results are out. The first round was we were asked to submit a video in which we had to give a short introduction about ourselves and why we had chosen IMT Ghaziabad college. After submitting the video and the application form, we were called for the personal interview round. My interview round started with why MBA? Tell me about yourself and some basic HR questions. And the interview was mainly based on the priorities of programmes I filled in the application form. Questions were asked on why you chose these programs and why not other programs. I was also asked what if you don’t get into any B-school, what is your plan -b further. There are also questions based on my academics and the projects I had doneatn my graduation. The whole interview took around 20 mins.
