KKR Scholars
Hi everyone,
I’m a first-year student interested in recruiting for IB/PE. I just got a hirevue invite for the KKR scholars program. I was trying to find more information about it on here but couldn’t find much.
I was wondering what are everyone’s thoughts on the program? How selective/prestigious actually is it? What could I expect from the hirevue? What can I expect actually going through the program? Any other similar programs that I also should be applying to?
Really appreciate any and all insights.

From what I heard from a friend last year who did the hirevue was that the questions were technical so you have to focus on that only and its mostly basic stuff, but you should expect a curveball in terms of difficulty. I'm a bit nervous as he was saying value creation/valuation/business comparison.
Interesting, i read that the hirevu was behavioral only
really? where....I think it depends where you are. He was at a semitarget (UNC/UCLA/UT) so maybe that's why.
Is the hirevue the same as the criteria corp link cause that’s what I got
Yes
So here's the deal: not a single HireVue has been the same. I have heard from friends from semi-target to target that they had simple behavioral questions. However, friends from lower-semi to non-target have received behaviorals on top of technical questions, such as asking about market trends or valuation. Hope that helps!
wait so there is technicals? when is everyone going to do the hirevue?
Is KKR scholars an internship?
think it's a discovery/early insights program, heard it's pretty useful; will get you into the process somewhat
Has anyone done the hirevue yet from a high target?
Planning on doing it tomo. I'm at an ivy and praying there are no technicals.
At one of Harvard/Yale/Princeton. Will be doing it tomorrow, but I expect behavioral questions.
Any international students that got hirevues?
no rejected target school
Hey does anyone have any additional insights?? im doing it tmrw
is it 13 mins estimated time for people with technicals, and 6 minutes for without technicals?
and how many tries for hirevue?
1 try
My thing says its going to be 10ish minutes and 2 questions. When I clicked the link it said it will take around 13 minutes. Can I expect behaviorals or technicals
How did it go? How much prep time did you have? Any technicals?
How much prep time do you get per response?
1 minute and no retakes on the responses (responses are 3 minutes)
Del
I got behavioral + gen markets stuff, did you get the same?
Alr murders and executions
I haven't taken it yet. Just wondering what to expect. Any advice? Also How much prep time?
I just got 2 behavioral questions: tell me abt urself and a difficult situation you had in a team. I prepped beforehand for this but heard technicals vary/school. From Georgetown btw
I had the same two questions. 1 minute prep, 3 minute answer. Semi-Target (UCLA/UNC/UT)
Did your interview say estimated 13 minutes?
yes
Is this a diversity program? Interested for next year
does anyone know when we hear back?
Heard back this morning
Accepted?
just got a R1 does anyone know what they ask ?
