FT Recruiting Interview Difficulty?
Accepted a SA2027 offer at a top MM (JEFF, WF, HL) at a non-HCOL Office and want to rerecruit ft for a BB or EB. My superday was lowk light as hell and I feel like I am not prepared for a real IB interview, especially technical EB interviews. I’m assuming this is what I need to know before next summer, correct if I’m wrong and feel free to add to the list:
Every line item in an average 10k 3 statement model
Depreciation/Amortization Schedules, lease schedules, pension schedules
Advanced Capital Structure including specialized equity like RSUs, options, and share repurchases
Advanced merger math including dilution and debt/equity/cash consideration mixes
Bond math
LBO debt instrument features
Industry specific questions (there’s a lot to go over here so any advice would be very helpful)
Thanks for y’all’s help!
Similar experience and planning to rerecruit. Maybe we can mock later in the summer

Can't speak for EB but I went through 2 BB FT processes and was offered at one of them and I think you kind of encompassed most of what you need to know already. Personally, in my two processes, I'd say that the technicals were a lot more honed in and not so general as they were for SA processes. Additionally, there are technical questions I was asked outside of the 400Q guide.
For context, one of my processes was a coverage group and the other was product group so for the coverage group later in the interview process I was asked to speak to the industry a lot and there were some technicals sprinkled in in regards to it as well and for the product group it was definitely a lot more technical about certain processes/models that the group works on.
how'd u go abt learning the extra stuff not on the 400q? Any specific resources?
congrats on ibtechprep.com UGC!
