Skills Test
Please describe the interview / hiring process.
The interview process was fairly simple. The first round was a case interview, this was a screener for essentially 70% of the candidates. Case study was just a business breakdown of a company (they provide all the information you need) and a quick financial analysis of how the company is doing based on ratios, comps, etc. (again, they give you all the relevant financials and industry ratios). Next was a super day, where you have a 30 minute behavioural interview with each of the 5 industry groups. The groups are 1) industrial, consumer, defence, and tech 2) natural resources 3) infrastructure 4) sovereign and sub-sovereign debt team 5) financial institutions group. The interview questions were mostly about prior experience and things like weakness/strength as well as situational questions (a time when you made a mistake), some of the groups asked me about how I would specifically think about lending to the industries that they cover (this was really the most technical part of the interview). Think about how you would perhaps lend to a university or any other such public institution, or maybe how you would think about lending to financial institutions such as REITS, PE funds, banks, etc. They extended offers 2 days after the super day.
