Does Houlihan Lokey ask Restructuring Technicals during SA interviews?

I'm looking through glassdoor reviews, and I don't see any of them mentioning restructuring technicals, so I'm wondering if it's worth it to study them.

Bro, don’t be lazy and study the god damn Rx technicals!!!

Remember there’s some Indian kid who is happy to do it and he will take your spot if you allow him. One thing a coach can’t fix. LAZYNESS and cowardice

 

I’m interning with HL this coming summer in a CF coverage group.

If you’re interviewing for a coverage group (Consumer/Food/Retail, Healthcare, Energy, Tech, etc) I highly doubt it. I didn’t get asked any during my SA process.

If you’re interviewing for RX, then yes, you should expect to get asked questions relevant to the group you’re pursuing.
