My Mendoza MBA Program Review by 1-st year student. Rating:****

Hi everyone,

I too received an invite for Kira interview. Since I couldn't find any post regarding the questions asked, updating the same.

3 video questions, 10 sec preparation time, 1 min response time
a) How do you stay organised ?
b) Give one example where you had a positive impact on a team you were working with.
c) Share an incident where you had a creative idea in school or at work.

1 written question, no preparation time, 5 mins response time
a) What did you do last weekend ?

Has anyone heard back after giving the KIRA interview?

Regards,
Rohan

Hi all,

Though I am an MBA applicant, I applied for the MSM program this year and have interviewed with the ad team, anyone here with the same situation?

FYI, I have done researches on the KIRA questions and hope they can be helpful.

Understand your pain StoneCold.
An Indian IT Male client who wanted Mendoza badly, is waitlisted there. To worsen things further, he's now gotten ultra-busy, and needed several reminders to send a waitlist response mail.

Not easy to keep patience during such times, but patient you must be.

I had assumed though you would have applied in R1, esp for someone with your knowledge of the processes.

Its tough man.
I actually applied to a dual degree which has a class intake of only 25 students with an average GMAT of 720...

Also, I got done with my GRE exam in December so I had no choice but to apply in R2.


P.S -> With all my heart -> NOBODY and I mean NOBODY loves Notre Dame as I do.

I am waiting too buddy

I submitted my app on 9th January. I did not have my TOEFL back then. I got Kira interview invitation on 23rd January(crazy thing where you have one minute to respond on each question - I have completed it on 28th January). It really looks that Kira has a purpose to check communication skills. I got my TOEFL in the meantime (109) and they already have my GMAT (650). I already got admitted to SMU COX and Rochester Simon (scholarships included ) so I am becoming very impatient I am also expecting to be admitted to TCU and College of W&M (already had a very positive interviews and feedbacks).
