Hey anonymous2022, the following topics might be helpful:
More suggestions...
Hope that helps.
From what I remember, the technicals were steps in a DCF (including how to calculate WACC) and LBO. I can't remember the other questions but I remember the interviewer did pick up on my experiences and asked me about an industry on my CV that I had prior exposure to.
thanks a lot! Pls let me know other type of questions if you are able to recollect :)
Which office is this for?
London office
Interviewed at ING last year (Amsterdam office). Questions were mainly focused on valuation, so multiples, DCF etc, and the general approach of an M&A transaction. Also lot's of behavioural questions and stuff like, why ING, why this team, why not firm XYZ.
okay I see, thanks a lot! I dont have in depth knowledge of LBO yet. You think that would be an issue? What kind of questions i can expect from LBO?
I also didn't really have any knowledge of LBOs. So I quickly indicated that I didn't have much experience with them (but understood the general idea) but I did know the other valuation techniques; comparable company analysis, precedent transaction analysis and DCF. After that they only asked about those and no LBO questions. But if you still have the time, I would try to prepare for LBO questions. Maybe I was just lucky
oh nice! Thank you so much! Great help! Lastly, can you pls guide as to how i should approach the question -- "why ING?" What are the key aspects I should definitely mention?
