Summer Associate Interview Questions

I'm about to begin interviewing for summer associate positions at most of the I-banks and a few buy side PE mezzanine funds. I don't know what I don't know...if that makes sense.

Can anyone give me advice on the tech questions that are asked in these kinds of interviews.

Thanks, Treavor

I don't have anything to add

I don't have anything to add but you'll probably get a better turn out response wise if you let everyone know what kind of prior experience you had before B-school. That way those who have gone through associate level interviews will have a good idea what you already know.

With no relevant work

With no relevant work experience, you'd really need to nail the case interview if you get one (we put all our associate candidates through a case). Basically, if given an example company, you need to be able to identify the questions you would ask to extract key data. Basically a test of your knowledge of what makes a good business. Sorry if this seems abstract, but I've never administered or gone through our case interview.

Do you want specific

Do you want specific interview questions from IB's? There are technical questions and specific questions here.

Thanks Bumble

Thanks Bumble.

I'm a finance / econ undergrad and the terminology doesn't scare me. DCF, CAPM, etc.

However, most sites have very generic information. I'll check out the site you posted.
