MIT Sloan MBA Interview Questions & Report: Round 1 / Adcom / Zoom

Casual, but straightforward, interview, which put me at ease as I had some issues with the webcam at the beginning of the interview. My interviewer was a senior adcom member who was professional and courteous rather than chatty.

The interview is less than 30 mins, so not sure how she feels, but I did the best that I could. Here are the questions:

  • Any updates to your application that you would like us to know about?
  • Tell me about your data visualization.
  • Follow up on data visualization.
  • Tell me about how you joined your current startup (is it pandemic impacted, did it impact your onboarding process, how do you get to know your colleagues).
  • How does your current startup make money?
  • If you sit with me at a dinner table, can you describe to me (who has no idea of what you do) your current startup and your role?
  • Tell me about a time that you disagreed with a co-worker.
  • What is the startup incubator you mentioned in your resume?
  • Do you enjoy working at your current startup?
  • Why MBA now?
  • Why Sloan?
  • Do you have any questions for me?

Update: Did not get the admission offer, which was disappointing, but I learned a lot from the process. Good luck everyone!
