The percentile score in the title is calculated across the entire Company Database and uses an adjusted score based on Bayesian Estimates (to account for companies that have few interview insights). Simply put, as a company gets more reviews, the confidence of a "true score" increases so it is pulled closer to its simple average and away from the average of the entire dataset.

Interview Questions
This was my first ever take-home case study. I was given a 60 page CIM and was asked to build a model on the business and put together a 5 - 10 page investment memo (presentation or written) in 48 hours.

After submitting the case study, I had to present the case to two VPs to which I received many questions that I had not thought about related to the case.

The easy questions were related to the model and my assumptions. The harder questions were related to thought process when considering the opportunity.
