Please describe the interview / hiring process.
The position started off with a typical investment banking phone interview. Going over what is investment banking, why I wanted to get into banking, and then reviewing my past experience.
I then had a second phone interview with a VP in the company and that was more technical, but still mostly fit questions. He also explained what the position would be like, and emphasized that the main role would be sourcing business in the middle market community.
The third step in the interview process was a mock call with a CEO of a middle market company. It was definitely the most unique part of the process, and included trying to gain insight into the CEOs business and then going over how Arbor could help position that CEO for an exit.
