The following Yale SOM interview report was submitted to Clear Admit by a Round 2 applicant. Good luck to them!
The three video interview questions I received were:
1) Why have you chosen to pursue an MBA at this time?
2) Tell us about a time when you had to exert extra effort to complete a task. What was that task and what steps did you take to be successful?
3) “The people who we remember most are the people who break the rules.” Do you agree or disagree with this statement?
Just as Yale SOM shares, for the first and third question you’ll be given 20 seconds to think about your response and then 60 seconds to answer. For the second question you’ll be given 30 seconds to think about your response and then 90 seconds to answer. Additionally, you’ll have time in-between each question, as you are in charge of selecting when you’re ready to move on to the next question.
Just prepare like you would for any other type of interview, take a deep breath before moving into each answer, and believe in yourself. Your experiences matter and are what they care about. Be true to yourself and you’ll be fine!
Best of luck!
