UCB MFE UCB MFE Admission Results Discussion

[Tatiana]

hi guys, does anyone know if they have started sending out interview invites?

Looks like they haven't

 

[pushkark]

Just saw a guy post on tracker that he interviewed with UCB. Anyone here on the thread received an invite?

 

[Max Lamberti]

I received an invite for Monday. It's with an Alumni.

The day before I got the invite the admissions team asked me to send additional documents I didn't provide in my application (course certificates). So I could imagine that since they already had my file open for administrative purposes they went ahead and scheduled the interview. I don't believe all interview invites have been sent out yet (last year most round 1 trackers got an interview).

Has anyone else received invite?

hey, how was your interview? What was it primarily about?

It should be email, although I've seen one person in past threads who claims he/she was cold called by Linda for the second interview.

It went OK I think, thanks for asking. Basically it was a half hour long technical interview covering basic probability, finance, regression, time series analysis and programming. It was very relaxed in the sense that the interviewer made sure I would only answer the questions and topics I felt comfortable answering. Concerning the programming part, the interviewer first asked me about my proficiency in all my languages and then proceeded to focus on my strongest one (python).

Normally they come after a month of deadline. But no concrete info for this year yet.

I got the interview on next Tuesday. I feel nervous about technical questions..

Hi Marc,

How do you know that people with guarantee are being interviewed?

I got the same offer Dec 2017. But I have not received any updates about interviews recent days. Could you give me some information when you finished this interview? Many thanks

But aren't we all applying for 2019 and 2018 is too near for interviews?

 

[AarVee]

Any more invites? There have been no updates in the last 10 days.
