Interview Questions
Give me an example of a time you had to collaborate or be entrepreneurial in work or another experience. How did you come up with the idea? Did it work, why or why not?
Simply stated a time a coworker and I during my internship collaborated and came up with the idea to introduce two companies that were in our portfolio but did not have exact business correlation. Found the synergistic alliance that could occur, and now the two companies are collaborating on a new product line.

Interview
Was invited to a phone interview with a senior VP, then invited to interview in-person in their office. I met with 4 team members, starting from a junior analyst and moving up the ranks through an MD. The questions were mostly fit and experience oriented, with extensive focus on my background, deal experience, and skills. Interviewers were very friendly and relaxed, the atmosphere was very comfortable and laid-back. Definitely a positive experience.

Are you willing to work the very long hours required for this role? Are you sure you are willing to fully devote yourself?
