The interview process for XIMB BM is pretty standard. The direction and the overall interview experience will depend a lot on how you are answering the questions. There are usually three panelists.

The interview starts with an introduction. There will be questions regarding your family background, past academics, etc. There will be questions about your undergraduate subjects. You can also expect general questions such as ‘Why MBA?’ ‘Why XLRI?’ etc.

Try to give short and straightforward answers. Try to stay patient and confident throughout the whole interview.

One of my close friends attended the interview of XIMB BM and according to her experience, it doesn’t matter whether you have an XIMB or an IIM interview. Just prepare the basics properly.

The entire focus should be on how to articulate the sentences and how true you are in justifying them. You will not get rejected for what you don’t know rather you get rejected when you are not true to yourself and fail to justify your answers.

The questions you might be asked given your background. You must have some knowledge on topics like government policies, sector management, and challenges in implementing the programs. For example, why rural management at Dhoker Jhara village in Jharkhand is poor, what are the reasons, and what can help in bringing substantial changes.

Questions about your passion and goal/job orientation are asked. Try not to give mainstream answers. Perform well!
