I was waitlisted without an interview. Just finished the pre-recorded video interview that is required after accepting the waitlist. The pre-recorded format gives me a lot of stress as the timing was strictly defined, and I don’t know what kind of questions was going to be asked. I’m sharing my questions here, and hope this will help other candidates in similar situations. There are 5 questions. Each has 45 seconds to prepare and 3 minutes to answer.
1. A diversity, equity, inclusion (DEI) experience
2. What do you want to get out of business school and how can Haas help you?
3. Think about an experience when you led a team and the situation become complicated or stressed, and morale was low, what did you do and what were the results?
4. Tell us a time when humility gave a positive result.
5. Anything else that is not covered yet?
