Berkeley / Haas MBA Admissions Interview Questions: Round 3 / Alumnus / Off-campus

My interview was conducted by a 2007 graduate at his office in the evening. Very conversational and comfortable. He didn’t really take any notes but was focused on the discussion. Lasted about an hour and a half.

  • Walk me through your resume. (this was the majority of the discussion)
  • Why do you want to go to business school?
  • What do you see yourself doing coming out of business school?
  • What other programs are you interested in at Haas? (beyond the ones I had mentioned that fit with my career plan)
  • Tell me about a time you were able to do something creative/not by the book. (military background)
  • Tell me about a time you… something about wanting to go in a different direction than a supervisor.
  • What kind of leader are you?
  • Do you have any questions for me?

RESULT: Admitted April 21st 2010
