Interview Report

The interview took place in Room C0001 of ADMC on Sunday 3^rd March, at 10.45 a.m. The interviewee was Sultan Ahmad Al Qubaisi, H00247456, who was applying for the post of business manager. As usual I acted as chairman of the interviewing panel, while detailed questions were asked by Ghanem Al Hassani, H00237051, and Hamad Alkhoori, H00251326.

I began by inviting Sultan to introduce himself. He did so fluently and confidently, with good eye contact and body language which suggested preparation and confidence. He said that he had graduated from the ADMC bachelor’s programme and then gone on to study for his MBA at Manchester University in England. He said his experience of studying overseas had been a thoroughly positive and rewarding one. He had been forced to fend for himself and had learnt how to become independent and self-reliant.

Hamad and Ghanem asked their questions in a rather quiet fashion. I think in future both need to speak up and to prepare what questions they are going to ask in advance. Sultan scored well in voice and language, with good volume, grammar and vocabulary used throughout. No nervous habits were exhibited. Visual cues suggested high confidence.

Overall it was obvious that Sultan had prepared for the interview and as a result he performed well and attained a good grade.
