Got asked in an interview what id include in a pitchbook for a buyside deal. I was kinda confused because I thought pitchbooks were for sell side deals. I didn’t know what to say so I said some stuff you’d put in a sell side one and added that you’d tailor it to the purchaser or maybe even the IC if it’s a sponsor deal.
Was this a trick question? This was a while ago at Cain Brothers.

Bizarre question for an SA interview role. Bet the dude was prepping for buyside interviews and that was probably fresh on his mind so he asked you
Nah this was a senior.
