In the IIM Calcutta Executive MBA interview, you can expect a mix of professional and personal questions. They want to understand what you’ve done in your career so far, how you’ve grown, and how clearly you know what you want to do next.
Most of the time, the panel will ask about your work, key projects, team experience, decisions you’ve taken, or challenges you’ve handled. If your role involves leadership or people management, that’s something they usually explore more deeply. The questions are not tricky, but they want to see how well you can explain things and reflect on your journey.
You may also be asked why you want to do this MBA now and why IIM Calcutta in particular. It’s important to be honest about your goals and show how the program fits into your plans. They are looking for people who are serious, self-aware, and ready to learn — not just someone chasing a degree.
