Summer Analyst

Had an on-campus interview for the firm, we are typically considered a non-target but they do OCR here. They flew in, and took many of us out for dinner the night before 1st rounds -- this dinner allowed us to meet our interviewers as well as other current employees at the firm. The first round was a one-on-one, primarily technical interview. TMABYS and "Why Moelis?" were asked, but only those, so high differentiation was required (believe this is where I failed). After that, an on-the-guides accounting question, off-guides M&A accretion/dilution question where you have to ask for numbers, and an off-guides debt waterfall question was asked. Lastly, there were questions about differences between bank and high-yield debt. I did not get an offer.
