following. I’m familiar w 13WCF for workout deals / distressed deals as a weekly deliverable for deals I’ve done. curious to see what the test is and what others say tho
It will depend on the format of the interview. If it is a take-home, you will likely get a business scenario, historical 3 statements & current AR/AP. From there, you will build out a TWCF model. They may also ask for the TWCF to be integrated into a 3 statement model and also may ask for a liquidation analysis.
I've been interviewing a lot in this space and had an extremely difficult time preparing at first. I've since collected a lot of materials (some through people on WSO) and also saw last week that WSP released a course specifically catered to building a TWCF (I have not taken, but may take before I start at a job in this space). I have taken the restructuring course on WSP and will caution that while the course is great in understanding how to model a Ch.11, they do not go in depth on TWCF modelling in that course.
Feel free to PM me.
Hey,
I saw your post back in 2020 regarding the 13 statement cash flow model. I’ll begin working on RX this summer and want to get a head start on learning more advanced models. Do you happen to have any of those cash flow resources? Would be a huge help
Do you have any materials to share from your interviews? Would love to take a look as a prep for a 13WCF test.
