Final round -> 2x face-to-face interviews. 1 in a room with a SVP, the other in a room with 2 analysts. both were a mixture of fit and technicals, but the analysts tend to grill you harder with the technicals, but then talk to you casually more too.
Advice: Don't just memorize formulaes. What they're looking out for is whether you really understand the rationale behind the entire formulae/DCF/Comps. E.g for CAPM, know why you use the riskfree rate, why you use the equity risk premium, what does beta signify, what's levered/unlevered beta for etc
