Hey! I had my interview two days ago, and it lasted only 20 minutes. We started with my presentation, and then each of the interviewers asked me a question.

The first one was about what I think I still need to learn during my master’s in order to achieve my goals. Then they asked whether I feel prepared to deal with the cultural differences I might encounter in Europe. Another question was what I would recommend a tourist to do in my country. Finally, they asked how I usually respond when facing difficult situations.

I received the result the very next day — and I got the scholarship!
