Investment Banking Mock Interview

“Fantastic session we really covered everything we went from behavioural corporate finance M&A evaluation models and accounting. He was very kind and walked me through a couple of questions that I was weaker on. Yeah very enthusiastic evidently has a lot of knowledge very relevant experience in terms of conducting interviews and guaranteed interview questions gave me a plan to go away and walk to work on which is really helpful and I will definitely be doing that so definitely would recommend and will be booking another appointment in the future.”

Investment Banking Mock Interview

“I loved how he was specific to me. And what i needed to work on and he made and mimicked the same style as an interview ( like a real life - going into some behavioural questions ( wanting to hear some market updates ) then going straight into a technical interview . It was nice to also find a mentor from the same background who played tennis and also into a sector I’m interested in and explained how to handle -> why a particular group style sort of questions and giving more attributes I cool pull from given similar backgrounds ”
