The second year student who conducted my interview was very friendly and intelligent. The interview was relaxed and comfortable. The interviewer had a copy of my resume. Since his background was in the same industry, he was most interested in the transitions between companies I had worked for and the reasons underlying those decisions. The interview was brief and conversational, yet professional; it focused mostly on the basics with just a couple industry specific questions.
Interview Questions:
1. Walk me through your resume. 2. How do you see the future for your industry? 3. Why are you interested in Yale? 4. Q&A
The Yale interviewer asked me engaging questions specific to my field, but he did so in a casual and encouraging manner. He was very likable and, as compared with previous interviews, this interviewer was the best in terms of his ability to grasp “big-picture” concepts. Overall, this was a relaxed and professional interview that left me with a good impression of the school.
