The interview was very smooth. I got contacted by the HR to make sure that I had the requirement in terms of Visa to work in the UK. Then, my resume has been presented to the team and they planned an interview for the next week. I've met 2 nice guys which asked me mainly fit questions right after the 25mn case study that I had to do and present in the beginning of the interview.

Interview
Applied online, and after a few weeks HR reached out and set up a Skype interview with an associate at the firm. The interview lasted around 20 mins and consisted of me telling my story and the interviewer asking a few questions about my CV. Then they moved on to a few very simple technical questions like "What are we looking for in a company?" etc.
Interview Questions
What are we looking for in a company when considering extending a leveraged loan? Walk me through your background and resume? Tell me about your previous internship? Why did you do a gap year between your Bachelor and Master?

The key thing to look at is essentially the company's ability to generate cash flows to cover the debt service. Starting from that you would look at the industry and relevant trends and forecasts, the company's position within this industry, market share, product offering etc. Then you would look at the historical and projected financials to see whether the cash flows are estimated to be sufficient, and possibly any asset that could be used as security, and also any existing debt that might have first lien etc.
