Stanford GSB MBA Admissions Interview Questions: Round 1 / Alum / Off-campus

I had my GSB interview on December 7. It lasted for one hour and a half. All the questions given to me were behavioral questions. I was frequently interrupted and challenged, and was encouraged to dig more and more into the underlying reasons for my actions. Due to this approach, I cannot remember the exact questions. It went like: I started with Question A; 30 seconds later, I was re-directed to Question B, because my interview made a query about the part I just stated. I do remember that no questions are atypical, and you can find them on this page or through other resources. The only question I can remember is:

  • Tell me about a time when you took an initiative and how you moved it forward.

One tip from me: please dig, DEEPLY, into your stories before you enter into the interview room.

Good luck to everyone!
