Which firms have the most techincal interviews?

Citi and JPM are both exceptionally technical (well... one guy of the 4-5 that interview you will be purely techinical - the other's test stuff such as leadership, fit, etc.... forget the criteria, as it was so long ago that I interviewed)

by far the most technical i have seen

i would say lazard and ubs la

Houlihan Lokey grilled me pretty hard on the technicals. I got "technicals light" from Wachovia as well.

JPM was not technical at all for me. Lehman was the least technical I would say and ML the most.

Don't have to worry much about this anymore!

My Merrill interview was completely fit... didn't get a single technical question.

JPM asked me to do cubes in my head, then asked me about accretion dilution, then asked me about valuing non-profits, then tested me on case studies :-/

How did you/how do you value non-profits??

All IBD interviews in the immediate future will be like this:

It's all a matter of who interviews you and your background. If you were a finance/accounting double major from Wharton, expect more hardcore financial questions than the econ major from Princeton or Amherst. Even then, it varies simply on the interviewers. At UBS, I didn't get a single 'technical' question, other than a brainteaser and a few very high level questions about financial statements. Then at Bear, a friend of mine got basically the same treatment while I was hit with 30 minutes of pure accounting questions, then another 30 of finance/brainteaser questions. Just be prepared for either scenario.

I went to a target school and BoA, GS, CS, and others really lobbed it to me, even having studied finance. Mostly fit interviews and getting inside how you think + analyze a problem. Did get some serious stock- and market-related questions with GIR/FICC at GS, and some IQ/brainteaser stuff on a couple phone interviews.

Most technical interview was with a private wealth manager. Loan amortization tables from scratch. :O

Blackstone.

Top regional BB offices have exceptionally technical interviews.

blackstone

Evercore. They only hire people that have taken finance/accounting for the past three years.
