My interview was scheduled at 1:30pm on campus – for 30 minutes. I reached the Admissions Office 20 mins early and checked myself in. Having visited Berkeley several times (especially to eat delicious Indian food), I didnt have any trouble finding the school. The partking lot mentioned in the invitation email was the one where I parked my car – about 10 mins uphill walk from the school building. The interview started exactly at 1:30pm The interviewer was a lady from AdCom. She had my resum and mentioned that she hadn’t looked at my essays as yet. The interview was very straightforward as she asked just 2 questions. In the beginning of the interview she said that she will ask me just 2 questions – and I have 25 mins to answer those. Qs 1: Tell me something about yourself. (Walk thru your resume) Highlight one incident or thing from your academic, professional and personal life. Qs 2: What are your professional objectives? How does a Haas MBA fit in? Why do you want to do an MBA right now? The interview was over at 2pm exactly. The interviewer was quite friendly.
