Interview Details

What did the interview consist of?
1 on 1 Interview
Please describe the interview / hiring process.
Got an email from recruiter after applying online. 30 minute zoom was scheduled for the next week. 1 on 1 interview with an associate. Asked me to walk through resume and why PJT, why I was applying other places after having an internship, asked about the business model of a company I've been following, a few questions about acquisitions and valuing private companies, walking through the financial statements with specific revenue, COGS, and dep., and gave numbers to calculate UFCF. Very challenging for a first round interview.
