Capital Group - case study financial modeling fundamental research associate

Hi all,

Do you have any insight on the financial modeling case study for the fundamental research associate role? It’s 3h long. Should I expect building from scratch a 3 statement model, forecast over 5y and then a DCF? Does the model provided has the historicals added or need added? Does it require granular forecasting of topline? Are WACC components given? Thnx!
