Interview

i submitted my resume through LinkedIn. I was then contacted by HR and was sent a few screening questions regarding valuation concepts to be completed on my old time. Once the assignment was forwarded back to HR, a face-to-face interview with Management is set up. The in-office interview with two Principlas is very basic. Barely any technical questions were asked. Two weeks later received offer.

Personality Test

Interview

The interview started with a brief phone conversation with a Director, asking questions about my familiarity with various modeling methods, databases and programming skills. After we chatted about what classes I was taking at the time and my favorite things to do to chill- he ended it by transferring me to the secretary to set up an in person interview.

I came in a few weeks later for my in person interview. The interview was rough, I was told to brush up on my models, and come with my game face. During the interview the partner proposed several hypothetical situations and asked me to describe my response and the contributing factors to my reasoning. Then he asked how I would expect a given economic shock to ripple through the economy. What would be the largest effects, etc.

I was offered the internship a month later, and after proving my mettle, given a job offer at the end of the stint as an intern.

Interview Questions

The most difficult question was not exactly a question but a prompt. I was asked to list questions that I had for valuing a specific firm. When I ran out, the interviewer told me to ask another. Then another. I was at my wits end and he kept at it, telling me to think of more contributing factors and ask more questions, then to rephrase, he would answer evasively and make me be more direct.
