Kellogg MBA Admissions Interview Questions: Round1/Alumnus/Off-Campus

My interviewer let me choose the place, so I chose a coffeeshop in a hotel, which is quite quiet.
Interview was casual, we chit-chat a bit before interview.
He asked me to walk through resume first, then he just randomly pointed interesting point and asked me to elaborate more on that. Then he asked follow up questions
After that, these are the questions he asked.
1. What motivates you when your boss doesn’t favor you and puts you in a bad position?
2. Which quality you didn’t know that you had before working? And you were surprised that you can do it.
3. What do you think are the qualities that a good leader should have?
4. Tell me the time when you have to deal with bad leaders. How did you deal with them?
5. What is the most difficult task? Is it about dealing with people, analyzing things, or persuading executives? How did you deal with them?
After an interview, we chit chat more about his experience at Kellogg.
We spent 1 hr and 20 mins.
And I got an offer from Kellogg 1Y MBA program :)
