mgqa: I gave the video interview yesterday, and the questions were in line with what people have posted under the other (Kira) thread you have referenced.

Here are the questions I got (re-phrased):

Video:
Practice:
If you could travel time, would you go back to the past or see the future?

Actual:
1. Why Toronto is awesome
2. Mobile wallpaper (mentioned already by someone on the Kira thread)

Written:

Practice:
Email to a second year Rotman student whose career path aligns with yours

Actual:
About Me section once you've graduated from Rotman


To your question on head/earphones: You'll have plenty of time to test your audio video - they allow you up to 10 attempts to record yourself on the platform even before you attempt the practice question, so you should use those attempts wisely to figure out what works best for you. I, for example, used my laptop without any ear/headphones and found that the audio was just fine.

But I did say "I'm excited to apply to Rotman's class of 2022" while practicing and then laughed at myself the first time I was testing the software. Point? Relax, and go for it, it's quite fun! :D

Thank you, your response means a lot. I'm doing mine tonight and I'm so nervous!

Hi everyone, I just finished my video and written assessment and these were the questions that appeared:

Video:
1. What would you tell your younger self? (Already mentioned in the thread)
2. What's your most used emoji and why? (Already mentioned in the thread)

Written:
1. Assuming you had just finished your first year at Rotman, what would you write on your LinkedIn post about your experiences and what you look forward to in your second year?

I wasn't very satisfied with my written assessment because I ran out of time before I could even get to the meat of it. Sigh. Here's hoping it's not a deal-breaker! Thanks everyone.

Thank you EP2620 and mgqa I have updated the list with your questions.

So, the questions are similar to before but they are using their own platform now as opposed to KIRA?

I'm not sure what KIRA is, but this seemed like Rotman's own platform.

Got it. Thanks for the confirmation. KIRA is a third-party platform that several schools including Rotman(till a few days ago) use for conducting timed video essays.

Yes, since the questions I got previously appeared on Kira, I would think they're still using the same pool of questions despite having transferred to their own platform.
