[原创]Yale on-campus interview experiences

Interview is blind.  In MBA Tour last year, YALE admission officer there also said that the interview questions would be very straight forward.
Thank testtech, cheeyong, yangrongxos, and everyone else for providing help.


Questions I was asked:
Go through your resume, about your work, why you go to xxx school, why you study xxxx....
Why you come to business school?  Career goal? (not exactly the same words)
Why now?
Why yale?
What are the challenges in your job?
What would you boss describe you?
Tell me about your interests (I listed several of my interests on my resume)
What did you do during xxx, did you do anything interesting (There is a half year gap on my resume, that is why he asked)?


These are all I can remember. Hope it helps.


For those who travel to New Haven to conduct the interview or to visit campus without a rental car, I recommend Marriot Courtyard hotel.  I payed ~$85 after tax for staying overa nite. Very nice room, right next to campus, about 10 minutes walking distance to SOM.  You can find its phone number on SOM web site, check the rate and make a reservation. Do not forget to mention YALE SOM discount.  This is the cheapest I can find among all other hotels on SOM list.   Certainly if you have a rent car and plan to park on campus during the visit, you will have more options to live in a more economical hotel in town within a reasonable distance.


For those who plan to fly to New Haven direct, leave plenty of room for flight schedule changes.  There are only US Airway jets commute to New Haven, and I can not say any good words about their services.

thanks for sharing. If you knew you would get an offer from tuck, would you still go to yale's interview?

Why you ask? I havn't thought about it.  


Interview definitely is a painful process. But I can always learn something out of it.

You can fly into Hartford which is about 30-50min away from New Haven.

$85 at Marriot Courtyard is a very good deal.  The hotel offers the best value for the money.

Good luck.

Thanks.  Yes, I was detoured to Hardfort in the midnight after I missed the last flight to New Haven. Totally unprepared. The driving was Ok though.

HOW DID THE INTERVIEW LAST?  IT WAS CONDUCTED BY CURRENT STUDENTS?  THX,

 楼主| 发表于 2006-1-26 21:24:00 | 显示全部楼层

About half an hour.  Within this half hour, he/she will leave ~5 minutes to let you ask questions.   


The interviewer was a 2nd-year student, very nice.   A little tense at the begining though, but we both relaxed a little bit as the conversation went.   


I went to the visit center almost an hour early. While I was waiting in the office, I saw he already interviewed at least two other applicants.  One 2-year stduent interviewer was late for some reasons, and then the admission director interviewed the applicant.  I think majority of the applicants wwill be interviewed by 2nd year students.
