Had an interview off-campus with an alumnus of the program. The alumnus was very friendly and easy to talk to – I felt good after the interview and he left me with a great impression of the program. Overall, I’d be familiar with the culture at Haas and their defining principles. Good luck interviewing with Haas!
- Started with small talk.
- Walk me through your resume
- Why Haas?
- Let’s talk about the four defining principles. Tell me about a time where you had to convince a team of your opinion.
- What would you change about your company if you were CEO?
- What’s your leadership style?
- Then, he asked a few questions about current events and my views on the economy (where the markets are headed, Greece, Facebook IPO, how does a company have a sustainable competitive advantage, etc.)
- How would you fit into the UC Berkeley community?
- How would you add value outside of the classroom?
- Any questions for me?
Good luck!
