Modeling Basics (Phase I and Valuation Crash Course)
This is an abbreviated version of the Phase I Basic Plan program. The trainer and the trainee will build a fully consolidated financial model. Next, a walkthrough of a mini-merger model and a mini-LBO model is performed. Finally the trainer and trainee discuss Valuation coupled with a Discounted Cash Flow analysis. Walkthrough of Main Topics We know it's important for a student to be "polished" in an interview. This walkthrough entails four 45 minute sessions working through the key points of Consolidated Financial Statements, a Mini-Merger Model, a basic LBO analysis, and Valuation and a Discounted Cash Flow analysis, respectively. Our goal is to ensure you are fully comfortable with the details of each type of analysis and can clearly explain the structure of each topic. Mock Interview* Mock interviews are held simulating common and recent questions and answers from both the trainers' and prior trainees' interview experiences. To maintain the relevance and impact of the interview process, we are constantly updating our tips and strategies to maximize your interview performance and results. For those who are planning to start the interview process, the Mock Interview is available as a two session program. Resume Critique* Our experienced trainers will help you organize, update and transform your resume as you begin the interview process. *The mock interview and resume critique are limited to 2 sessions each. If additional sessions are requested, $99 per session will be charged. |
