Interview
I applied online for the opening on a 3rd party career portal, which was followed up by an initial phone screen. I was then given a case study and 48hours to complete it. The final round is an office visit where I met with 1 of the MDs and other analysts. The process took about 3 weeks overall.
Interview Questions
Phone screen was your standard fit/why investment banking type. The following case study was rather more involved. You're basically expected to draft a CIM, Teaser, and a basic financial model from their previous clients/deals in a given 48hour time window.
The final round which is in the office is more fit focused, so be sure to show enthusiasm about the industry and BLC.
Overall, I would say other than the somewhat involved case study there was no unexpected questions or curveballs thrown in the process.

Interview
I interviewed at Black Legend Capital in June 2018. We are supposed to do a case study in two days and then a inperson interivew.
Interview Questions
There is nothing really unexpected, most of the questions are standard question from BIWS. Only technical question ask is walk me through a DCF. The rest of the question is just basic behavior question about your resume/why investment banking/why us/what we do, etc. There isn't really anything that is particularly surprising to me. They ask me a little bit of my family background, which is somethink I think pretty weird. But anyway like I mention there isn't really anything that difficult as long as you study BIWS.

The HR woman will call your phone number out of nowhere. She will screen you and then give you a phone interview. Then, you will go in for an in-person interview.

1) Case studies were given prior to in-person interview. Usually given a short time frame to finish without a lot of resources to help. They are mainly looking for fit and whether or not you can handle the work.

2) They will ask you to run through a basic DCF and what your experience has been with modeling. They will stress test you on the spot to see if you can handle the pressure.
