My First Time

This post is a lot less interesting than the title indicated it might have been.

Next week I have a phone interview with Jefferies for a summer analyst position in IBD (NY office). HR said that there would technical elements to the interview. Which technical topics would likely come up over the phone?

I have no finance professional experience and I am not an undergraduate business student, but rather math+econ. I'm currently unfamiliar with a lot of the technical aspects of ibd interviews and eventually I will have it all down, but this phone interview is soon and I'd like to know what to focus on.

 

Not to be a dick, but there are tons of threads on this- someone made one just last week about knowing basic technicals. I'll help you out, but go ahead and use the search function next time.

  1. ways to value a company (and a sentence or so about each of these)
  2. how to walk through a dcf
  3. understanding the 3 statements and how they fit together
