VP Level Modelling + Case

Hi fellows, I have an upcoming 5-hour modelling + case interview with a MM buyout shop for a VP role. I will be given a CIM and 4 hours to complete a model and some ppt slides and then 1 hour to do a presentation and a Q&A session. 


Below is how I plan to allocate my time currently:

  • 30 mins: Read the CIM
  • 90-120 mins: Building a functioning 3-statement model simliar to ones for assocaite tests
  • 90-120 mins: Putting together a few investment memo slides (incl. (i) exec sum & recommendation, (ii) company overview, (iii) initial findings & pros / cons, (iv) investment thesis, (v) model and return pages

There is lesser content on VP-level modeling + case so apprecaite any help and suggestions (especially on how I should allocate my time between model / case and any comments on my planned content in the ppt)


I feel the format is usually more common with assocaite-level hires so also appreciate any pointers on how a VP candidate can differentiate. 


Thanks!

 

Hi Crazybill, no, I never sleep and so I can respond to any lonely threads (like this one) at all hours of the night. Impressive, I know ;-)

More suggestions...

Fingers crossed that one of those helps you.
