Presentation

Interview

I know a number of employees there so my interview process was a little lax, especially for a short internship. Other candidates can expect to have a series of interviews that also culminate in a case exercise that took me right five hours.

Interview Questions

I did not have a formal interview so I didn't go through the process that other candidates endured. My experience is that this boutique is much less intense than your run of the mill Wall Street program.

Interview

I cold-emailed them and received a phone interview with one of their analysts, a 2nd year in their program. I didn't pass that stage, so I'm unsure what happens next.

Interview Questions

A lot of very technical questions including:

-What is cheaper, debt or equity?
-How would you go about valuing a private equity company and how much it is worth since there is hardly any information public about it?
-Why SDR?
-What makes you more qualified than a local candidate?
