GDPI Preparation Series Part#8 | Interviewers were impressed when I asked this!!

During my IIMB interview, the interviewers were genuinely impressed when I asked specific, research-backed questions about the institute!

💡 Here’s how you can leave a lasting impression by doing your homework:

🔍 Tailor Your Responses: Show how your goals align with the program. Have a solid answer for why you're interested in a non-flagship MBA program.
👩‍🏫 Research Faculty & Initiatives: Know the prominent faculty, research centers, and flagship initiatives. This demonstrates real interest!
💻 Be Ready for Technical Questions: Some programs, like IIMA’s PGP-FABM, might test domain knowledge – be prepared!
🎓 Leverage Alumni Insights: Reach out to alumni to get deep insights into the program. It’ll help you craft specific answers and decide if it’s the right fit for you.

Here are some popular non-flagship MBA courses you should know about:
1. IIMA - PGP-FABM: Agribusiness trends, rural development, food supply chain management.
2. IIMB - PGP-BA: Analytics, emerging technologies, big data.
3. IIMC - PGDBA: Collaboration with ISI & IIT Kharagpur, technical edge.
4. IIML - PGP-ABM: Global agribusiness, food security, market linkages.
5. IIMI - PGP-HRM: Human capital, HR tech, employee engagement.
6. IIMS - Sustainability Management: Climate change, ESG frameworks, sustainable business practices.
