Has anyone done the pre-recorded video interview for Columbia MSFE? If so, can you please let me know what to expect?

Thanks
 
I got 3 behavioral questions.
Only one I remember is: "Describe a good book you read recently."
They will all be posed in sequence. Eg. "Tell me about yourself.", "What are your weaknesses?", "Describe a good book you recently read."
And you get around 3-4min to answer to all of them, no breaks in between.
 
Thank you.
So I guess one of the questions is about a book that I have read.
Does anyone have any ideas for the other 2 questions?
 
When did you guys apply ?
As I can see, the deadline to apply is 5th of Jan. Its great that you have received interview invites. Congrats.
 
It is a one-sided video interview that is required of all applicants
 
Thanks for the info. Did you guys receive the interview invite just after submitting your application ?
