10 Pertanyaan Umum Saat Wawancara Beasiswa Beserta Jawabannya

Untuk menjawabnya, kamu harus sangat jelas merencanakan dengan matang kontribusi masa depanmu dengan bidang studi yang kamu dalami dan visi lembaga pemberi beasiswa.

Contoh jawaban: “A Master’s Degree in Finance, Accounting & Taxation will equip me in becoming a renowned financial planner expert and my country’s ambassador. I am currently applying for internships in the Ministry of Finance affairs and one of the big 4 consulting firms. Also, I am getting the certifications I need and aim at giving back what I’ve earned to the community and my country.”

3. Jelaskan Kekuatan dan Kelemahan Terbesar Kamu

Kamu harus menceritakan pula bukti konkret mengenai kekuatan dan kelemahanmu. Berikan contoh kejadian ketika sifat kerja kerasmu membuahkan hasil. Begitu pula dengan kekurangan, kamu harus menceritakan suatu kejadian ketika perfeksionisme dalam dirimu justru membawa hal negatif.

Contoh jawaban: “I would say that my greatest strength is I am an active listener. I can listen patiently, comprehend the situation at hand, and be compassionate about it when and where required. This is an ability I have developed during my school’s days, which had formed into a full-proof skill when I was elected as Student Representative consecutively. My listening ability has guided me to solve innumerable matters, and I believe I’m still doing a good job at it.

My weakness is my stubbornness, which can also sometimes be a strength. Once I’ve set my eyes on my goal, I turn persistent and tenacious towards its success. I guarantee my single-mindedness can help me get over my stubbornness. It’s a win-win solution for me.”

4. Bagaimana Kamu Melihat Diri Sendiri Lima Tahun dari Sekarang?

Di sini, penyelenggara beasiswa ingin melihat apakah kamu sudah memiliki rencana jangka panjang.

Jadi, daripada hanya menjawab bahwa kamu ingin lulus tepat waktu dan membangun usaha sendiri, akan lebih baik bila kamu bisa menjelaskan dengan detail visimu di masa depan, rencana untuk meraihnya, dan apa yang telah kamu lakukan untuk mencapai hal tersebut.

Contoh jawaban: “I always love playing with numbers and enjoy advising business person’s based on their financial status. That’s why in 5 or few years ahead I am planning on establishing my own audit company. I am currently getting all the certifications and licenses that I need to accomplish this dream. So a masters degree in financial accounting will equip me with the necessary knowledge to help me pursue my future goals.”
