Economics’ Post

This is a short overview regarding the natural rate of unemployment, a concept I recently brushed up on after an experience in a job interview. During the interview, while discussing my project, I was asked about this economic concept as a follow-up question. Despite its relevance to my studies, I found myself unable to recall the details clearly. Sometimes, these situations arise not just from a lack of preparation, but also because of nervousness. It's similar to studying hard for an exam, yet forgetting crucial information when writing your answer. This moment made me realize two important things: first, the importance of keeping our knowledge fresh and readily accessible; and second, the need to stay calm under pressure. Determined to address this gap and build my confidence, I went back to my resource and created this summary: #economics #experience #learning

How To Answer The Most Common MBA Interview Questions -- Plus Ross Essays and Making a Good Impression on Adcoms https://lnkd.in/eMDiHd4i #mbaadmissions #mbaapplication #mba #businessschool

As interviews start this week at the University of Cambridge here are a few bits of advice to help you through. Especially for students from a state school background, the process can be quite daunting so it’s really important to believe in yourself🤩 1. Firstly, congratulations! You’ve done incredibly well to get this far in the application process. Have faith in your abilities and trust your gut instincts. 2. Show your thinking out loud. Even if it seems silly or unimportant, the interviewers want to see how you think. 3. Know the work and statements you submitted. A lot of my interview pushed the ideas I gave in my personal statement and writing further (which can actually be really fun!). 4. Take your time and ask questions. Your interviewers are looking for curious students and don’t expect you to know everything. It is better to take your time rather than plough through any tasks as fast as possible. 5. Be confident. I remember in one of my group interviews there was a student who quoted a lot of French philosophers (in French!) and I had never heard of them and I felt very out of my depth. My interviewer later told me after I got a place that it wasn’t relevant at all to the discussion. You have so much of your own knowledge and thoughts so show them off! Good luck and if you have any questions please do reach out🙌☺️

Top things to avoid in your Bschool interview While everyone is out here giving tips on how to ace your school interviews, I thought it would be a fun activity to do the opposite. Or, to just invert as charlie munger used to say. 1) Don't lie: The interviewers are smart. They will quickly detect if you are lying about anything. And if they won't point it then and there, it will definitely turn out negatively for you. 2) Don't be overconfident: On the polar end of the spectrum, demonstrating that you're too good at any particular thing is also going to be difficult. Because they want people who are coachable rather than a know-it-all. 3) Don't not have questions to ask the interviewer: This is a common occurrence. At the end the interviewer will ask you if you have any questions for them. Make sure you don't go back mum. Make a list of questions that you can ask the interviewers. While there would be more pointers, these are the ones that seemed to be the most crucial to me.
