Chicago Booth MBA Interviews are by invitation only. They are conducted by members of the Adcom, second-year students or alumni. Typically, an interview lasts for about 40-50 minutes and they are conducted blind, which means, the interviewer has reviewed your resume, but not the rest of your application.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
