Services: HBS Mock Interview and Post-Interview Reflection Support

HBS Interview Preparation

Congratulations! You have progressed to the interview portion of the application process and will soon be meeting with a representative from Harvard Business School (HBS). Now you must prepare for this important step. Why not build your confidence before this unique interview experience with a specialized preparation session?

Individual Mock Interview

In this individual interview preparation session, you will speak via video call with an experienced mbaMission Senior Consultant or Managing Director who has been specially trained in HBS’s interview approach by our HBS Interviewer in Residence, Devi Vallabhaneni. Your Consultant will have read your entire HBS application in advance and prepared customized questions based on your candidacy and profile. In the session, you will have a chance to experience what an actual HBS interview feels like. Through Q&A, feedback, and thorough response planning, we will help you improve the content of your answers, your time management skills, and your overall presentation.

HBS Post-Interview Reflection

HBS asks all interviewed applicants to write a post-interview essay and submit it within 24 hours of their interview. This essay has no word limit, and HBS suggests that candidates think of it as an email they would write to a friend or colleague, rather than as a formal essay.

As part of our targeted HBS interview package, an mbaMission advisor will help you strategize your approach to this special essay. Your Consultant will also review a draft of the essay and provide feedback intended to assist you in making it stronger and more effective. Please note that because the HBS admissions office explicitly states that applicants are not to write anything in advance or receive outside help with this essay, your mbaMission Consultant will not edit your writing but will instead offer detailed strategic direction via comments only.
