PI is critical for those who can’t give informative answers

The personal interview is a critical step in MBA admission process and should not be taken lightly. PI is aimed at knowing a candidate more intimately - assessing the clarity of thinking process, future goals and the 'fit'   factor with the B-school.

It provides the admission selection committee of a B school to evaluate your interpersonal and soft skills.

The Personal Interview is an important step in getting an admission into the business school of your choice. Hence, it should not be taken lightly.  

One of the mistakes that many candidates make during a Personal Interview is sharing information that is not relevant to the question. In a Personal Interview, you are tested on your communication skills.

If you do not answer to the point or share irrelevant information, it shows that you are not paying attention to the question that the interviewer is asking you. This reflects badly on your interpersonal skills.

Generally, you should answer a question in four to six lines. Also, do not beat around the bush while answering questions. Give direct answers that are informative.
