The following UT Austin McCombs interview questions and report were submitted to Clear Admit by a Round 1 applicant. Good luck to them!

The interview was in the program office in Austin. The interviewer (a second year student), had a list of questions to ask, and walked us back to a smaller room. There he introduced himself, his professional background/future interests, and MBA involvement.

We then dove into a series of questions, and the interviewer did a terrific job making notes, and listening to my responses.

The following were questions he asked:

1. Walk me through your background.
2. Why McCombs, and why now?
3. Tell me about a time when you had to convince a team.
4. Give me an example of a time when you had to resolve a conflict.
5. What are your long term goals?
6. How do you see yourself being involved at McCombs?

There wasn’t much of a back-and-forth, the interviewer did not need to ask for clarifications, or push back on any of my responses. So the interview process was quite amiable, and to the point.
