Harvard Business School Interview Questions & Report: Round 2 / Adcom / Skype
I interviewed for HBS with two adcom members on Skype. I had one interviewer and one observer. Overall, the interviewer created a very comfortable environment and would nod at my answers encouraging me to tell more.
My questions were very tailored to my work experience, asking me about specific assignments at each of my jobs and why I switched workplaces. She had follow-up questions for sure and wanted to get as many details as possible. She asked me indirectly about my leadership style by asking me what I like and don’t like about my boss’s leadership. In the end, she asked me if there was anything I wished she had asked me. I chose to talk about my volunteering work since my interview was very work focused. We did not have much time in the end for questions for her.
Overall, I had a really nice experience and it was set in a comfortable environment.
