Interview
The job posting was for a senior analyst position in the business development (in pharma, bus dev = corp dev) group for a pharmaceuticals company in Chicago. They were initially looking for someone with 1-2 years of investment banking experience, but I was applying as an undergrad. I was extremely lucky to have connected with one of the other junior members on the team and they pushed me through the hiring process (this just goes to show that networking really pays off).

The interview process started with a phone screen where they asked mainly fit questions (why pharma, why bus dev). After the phone screen, I moved on to a super day where I got to meet with the whole team and it was there that I got more technical questions (how to value a pharma company, accounting questions, walk me through a DCF).
