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).

Interview
The program has a specific tab on their online website. I sent in my resume to the email listed. From there I was contacted and had an initial phone interview and was then invited back for an in person interview.
Interview Questions
Walk me through a DCF, How do you go about choosing comps, how do you calculate WACC, what is accretion/dulition analysis, what is beta. The interview was not super intensive but was just to give them an idea on your knowledge with valuation related material. The rest of the questions were more fit related. The basic walk me through your resume was included as well as why do you want to do investment banking. What makes you a good fit for our program? I was also asked 3 strength and 3 weaknesses which I did not think was a good question for the type of job.
