How do I prep for an EB Shareholder Activism and Defense Interview?
Hi all, have an interview (SA26) lined up for Shareholder Advisory and Defense at an EB next week. Any advice on how to prep for this? Was wondering how different it would be from a standard EB interview – should I expect standard difficult techs? Or easier on the LBO/Merger model side?
I really have no idea how to prep for the group-specific parts of this and was wondering how hard it might be compared to a standard SA M&A interview.
Know advance BIWS guide cold. Esp accounting.
How advanced do you think LBO content might be in the interview?
Know how to defend shareholders duh
Why do you even post this bruh
Analyst at Evercore SDSA said it's basically the same as a classic M&A interview + heavy on some esoteric LBO stuff. Not sure about the other EBs but hope this helps
Don’t think it’s much LBO, think it’s mostly accounting / merger model stuff. Prob some accretion dilution math.
just curious have you interviewed for SDSA before
I went to super day with them a few years ago. They said many times that they don't model.
Best preparation is (1) know as much as possible about activism as an investing strategy (eg what kind of targets attract activists, how do companies defend against activists, who are the key players (investors/law firms/banks), common tactics), (2) have a logical reason for wanting to specialize in the space, and (3) prepare 2-3 particular activist situations
There is a huge wealth of info available on Google if you search
I thought they don't model??
Have an interview coming up – anyone have any questions I should prepare?
