The entire interview process is really chilling, no techinical quesitons involved. It mainly focused on behavioural part, so that a good and reasonable motivation is needed to show your genuine interest towards this specific school and program.
I applied online. I interviewed at HEC Paris (Jouy-en-Josas) in May 2025
Interview
2 academics/staff, basic interview questions of introduce yourself, why you, why HEC, and then some curveball questions based on the CV and motivation letters. Be really solid on the first 3 questions, and the rest rolls on from there
