Group Interview
Interview
I emailed one of the managing director at the firm with a resume and cover letter. I then was invited into the office to meet the team.
Interview Questions
A lot of the interview was behavioral. As expected, I walked them through my background, my resume, and why I was interested in investment banking. Most of this part was very conversational.

After speaking with two of the partners at the firm, they invited me to another room with the other two partners of the firm. This was the technical portion of the interview. Some of the questions I remembered were as followed;

What are the three main financial statements?

What are the three main valuation methodologies?

Why do we add back depreciation in the cash flow statement?

I walked them through my background by keeping it conversational. I told them where I was from, how I initially got interested in business, and why I chose to major at my school.
