Social Entrepreneurship – Interview Experience

On the third day of TISS interview, one of the students of Social Entrepreneurship shared his interview experience with us.

As soon as he entered into the session, they were reading his DAF. One amongst the three panelists asked him to tell about him in 1 minute. After that they explained him the rules of extempore round. His topic was “Importance of entrepreneurship in primary and secondary education”. As usual, the time duration of 1 minute to collect the points and 2 to 3 minutes to speak was assigned.

They his interview round started. Following are the questions asked to him: –

  1. If you have done Bachelors in Financial Market, then why social entrepreneurship?
  2. What did you learn in the projects as an entrepreneur?
  3. If you have to go back to continue those projects, how would you tackle the challenges associated to it?
  4. What did you do in your gap year? ( he mentioned about it in his DAF).
  5. How did you assist your father in his business?
  6. If you had an option to pursue business enterprise, would you prefer to do it over social enterprise and if yes then why?
  7. What other course have you applied for?
  8. As you have chosen climate change as your second priority, would you be building your venture around it or something else?
  9. Do you have anything to ask from us?

The panelists were cooperative, according to him.
