Master foods marketing interview questions

1. “Who is (your name) in one minute?” or “We’ve already seen your resume – keep that in mind and give us your 1-minute spiel.”

2. Brian and I run two mom and pop bakeries (one in Durham and one in Chapel Hill) and it is an Austro-Hungarian bakery business. We think we should expand to make money, but don’t really know how to approach this. We’ve hired you as our MBA expert to help us with this. What would you recommend that we do?

3. Everyone is passionate about something. What is your mantra? How would you push your ideas on others?

4. Tell me about a product/service/idea that you REALLY like or REALLY DISLIKE and sell me on why I should like it or dislike it. What type of tag line would you create for this product?

5. Sell us on a product or an idea. It doesn’t matter what the product or ideology is, just sell it to us.

6. Analyze this ad and pretend that you are the client looking at it for the first time. What do you think? (Look closely b/c it’s probably not perfect.)

7. Tell me about why you came to the decision to leave your old industry.

8. (Advice: Don’t forget the framework even though they are throwing you wacky questions. They are wanting to see that you can adapt well to their curve balls and take everything in stride. They also want you to ask a lot of questions early in the cases. This will show that you would thrive in their less structured, open office environment.)

9. Interview format was weird! Not one behavioral question!
