Not a bean counter? Dinged.
Obviously accounting is important in IB, but with all the focus on valuation, modeling, and general corporate finance knowledge in interview discussions and prep talk you would figure a lot of the banks won't grind accounting questions beyond the standard "link the 3 statements" in first round interviews, and focus instead on some other topics.
I'm fairly positive I got dinged today after being grilled on accounting for 20 minutes. Had I known the interview was geared towards being a senior accountant instead of a first year analyst I would have put much more effort into getting accounting concepts cold.
Anyone else ever gotten the chopping block after an accounting biased interview?
Not sure when the next great opportunity will come along. Next time I will be a self-certified bean counter.
