DeGroote KIRA Interview questions

From Bitss

Kira has thousands of questions and there is no advantage to look for previous questions. Just be attentive and confident while answering anything they ask. Questions can be very random. Below are two I got :

If you have a chance to wake up anywhere you want one day, where would you?
If you were immortal, how old you would like to live.

From archieahhh

Just completed Kira. Questions were simple, why do you want to go to DeGroote, talk about some projects you've led, community services you've been involved in, and challenges that arise when working in a team.

From Gbmananth

Questions:
1. what were you are career aspiration and why DeGroote MBA.
2. What is your proudest accomplishment
3.Recent example where you had a conflict with another team while working on the project. How did you resolve it?
4. Activity you do while you are away from work. How do you choose your activity?

From d30

I had the same questions. Plus one written question-
If there are 4 emails and a client is standing near me, how would I deal with the issues and in which priority for a customer-centric role.

From Elina223

My written question is about "describe a situation you have to weigh risks over benefits".

From Shsi

The questions which are there on this forum were the exact ones that I got.
And make sure everyone is aware that why they want to do MBA from Degroote.
You will have 2 mins straight to speak.
One more thing. I guess scratch papers are not allowed only. I used for 1st question and then just used my memory to make notes.

From Rajakashyap

Done with KIRA My questions were:

1. WHY degroot and what are your career aspirations
2. Proudest accomplishment
3. Conflict solved in a team project and how it impacted the success of the project
4. Communal activities participated of work
5. Written essay: How do you divide teams in a project and how does that impact success of the project

From sushain09

1. Why MBA/ Why Degroote/ career so far and your goals and how an MBA will help you
2. Situation based question where they give you an opportunity to talk about one or more leadership skills- (Failure/ not meeting a goal, greatest achievement, teamwork, a challenge, Problem-solving etc)
3. There will be one question based on your personal traits/ hobbies/ something interesting about you. The question I got was about work-life balance and how I unwind from work.
4. Written question - Sorry, I can't recall this question.

Thank you. I have added these questions to the main post. How did you do on these questions?
_________________

I did pretty wel except for one question I was not able to finish my answer. Other than that for every question I had an example ready because I faced it during my work. So first of fall before giving Kira I had listed down each and every activity I have done in work and college. So that made easy to answer these questions.

Sounds great. You can have access to a pen and paper when you are answering the questions right? There are no restrictions on that, I believe?

Sounds good. All the best for the interview invites. Do you know when they will send out the invites?

I had similar video interview questions as you posted. My written question is about "describe a situation you have to weigh risks over benefits".

I submitted my application on 14th but still didn't receive any mail for KIRA interview. Any one else sailing same boat? What's the turn around time?

Posted from my mobile device

I submitted on 14th as well, but I receive the kira invitation on 19th. You may check junk/spam mailbox, if nothing there, I think you should contact admission office. Good luck.

There's nothing on the spam/junk. I informed the same to Adcom abd they insisted i wait for the week to end. Also, i received university acknowledgement on 21st Jan. When did you receive it?

Posted from my mobile device

I received the application acknowledgment on 19th, and received kira interview at the same day.

Ok great.

They seem to be overwhelmed by the volume of applications. I'll wait for a few days as advised.

Posted from my mobile device

I applied on 13th January but I didn’t even receive acknowledgement from their side.

Posted from my mobile device

I filled my application form on 19th jan and received a call for kira interview on 25th jan.
