So, you want to know about the IIM Bangalore interview experience for the 2021-23 batch, specifically for overseas candidates? Cool, let me share what I know.

My brother went through the IIM-B interview process as an overseas candidate. Here’s a quick snapshot of his profile:

Academics: CBSE (10th & 12th): 90% | Graduation: 65%
GMAT: 730
Work Experience: 18 months at Standard Chartered, London

His interview was with a panel of three professors and here are some key questions they asked:

Why did you choose to study in London for graduation?
What are your thoughts on the Ease of Doing Business rankings, and do they really impact foreign investments?
Do higher rankings mean more investment, and how do these rankings influence investors?
What are the most important things a foreign investor looks at before investing in India?
What about the fact that many investors are turning to China, and what about China's government policies?
The interviewers pointed out that China has a lot of corruption, but it doesn't hurt business as much as it does in India. Should India also use corruption to help business grow?

They also asked about his work experience:

Is Standard Chartered an investment bank or a commercial bank?
What’s the difference between investment banks and commercial banks?
What is a hostile takeover?
Are hostile takeovers common in India?
Why do you think hostile takeovers are rare in India?

Since he was an overseas candidate, they also asked:

Why come back to India?
Why not do an MBA abroad?
Questions about cross-border M&A deals and SPACs in India.

Hope this helps!

Its a Question about your future!
