Just submitted my video answers.
Personally i didn't face any technical glitches. So no complaints there.
But it wasnt so great. The lack of human being while answering made me stop a lot. I was unable to wind up the answers in 90 secs. so stumbled towards the end. It does cut you out at the end of 90 secs.
All in all a not so good experience and am back to calculating my chances for an interview call

I submitted my video questions today. I think I did fairly well. I knew the webcam aspect would generate some nerves so I prepared by having a friend ask me random popular interview questions while I recorded my responses via webcam. Today I warmed up with a few more interview questions and jumped right into the Yale interview. Since my mind was accustomed to the random question element as well as the time constraint I knew I'd at least avoid being stumped by the awkwardness of the moment.
The questions were fairly straightforward and the first one was actually really fun. When I visited Yale, a member of the adcom addressed the video question section. His advice was to stay away from canned generic answers that aren't indicative of your personality and to really give them a glimpse into who you really are (obviously you must stay professional). Good luck to all!!!!

Just finished my interview and I agree with some of the comments above. It was weird trying to get the right camera angle, not trying to look at the timer but being aware of it, and not having anyone to make eye contact with.
Lucky for me though I didnt have any issues with the connection...was surprised I managed to stay within 90s for 2 questions but sort of had to rush through 1 question to wrap up at the end.
The questions themselves were very straightforward, I'm not gonna post them cos no one else has and not sure if that breaks any rules of the forum but i can tell you they throw no curve balls. The last one which was a random question was just your opinion on a topic so dont stress too much about it. Good luck to everyone thats done it and a few who are yet to complete it...just stay calm and you'll be fine
