The interview lasted around 35 minutes; it was conducted on-campus with an admissions officer, and a second year student (who was training to interview applicants) sat in. It was pretty conversational and on the informal side, and while the interviewer came across as nice, she regularly cut off the conversation and changed the topic by asking a question from her list. The basic questions were:
- Why did you choose your college?
- Why did you choose your company?
- What is your biggest challenge at work?
- What do you enjoy most about your job?
- What do you do in your free time?
- Why Yale?
Some other topics were woven in through the conversation, but it appeared that those were the main questions she wanted answered.
