Harvard MBA Admissions Interview Questions: Round 1 / Adcom / Off-Campus Hub / Admitted

Very friendly and down to earth interview with an admissions committee member. The interview started off with some small talk and then she explained that she would ask me a series of questions and would be looking at her watch frequently and might have to cut me off, she never ended up cutting me off and was taking notes but also looked at me and had good eye contact as I spoke. Below are the questions I received:

  1. What did you think of the Harvard application process? Anything that we should change?
  2. What was your rationale for choosing X undergrad school?
  3. Walk me through your career progression.
  4. Tell me about what you do? What are your responsibilities?
  5. Talk to me a bit more about your future career aspirations.
  6. What type of leader are you? Provide an example.
  7. What type of things do you like to read?
  8. What is a company that you admire outside of the business field?
  9. What motivates you to work hard every day?
  10. What will you get out of your experience at Harvard? How will you fill your time?
  11. How will you contribute to the case method?
  12. Is there anything else that you would like to talk to me to about?
