CAP Virtual Interview
I got invited to a digital interview for CAP. Does anyone have any insight on this? I already know they have a heavy emphasis on behavioral questions.

Congrats on the interview invite! Based on the most helpful WSO content, here's what you can expect:
Behavioral Questions: As you've already noted, there's a heavy emphasis on behavioral questions. These could range from "Why did you choose your major?" to "Why would you be a good fit for this role?" Prepare to share experiences that highlight your skills, values, and interests.
Virtual Format: Many companies, like BlackRock, are conducting virtual first-round interviews. You'll likely have a set amount of time to answer each question, so practice concise, impactful responses.
Technical Questions: While the focus is on behavioral questions, don't be surprised if a few technical questions come up. Based on previous WSO threads, these could be related to your understanding of accounting, DCF, Comps, LBOs, and Merger Models.
Remember, the key to acing any interview is preparation. Understand the role, the company, and how your skills and experiences make you a great fit. Good luck!
