Current sophomore gunning for EB groups in SF and NY. Have pretty much gotten the 400s and BIWS guides down but am seeing that EB interviews have gotten much harder over the years. Am in our school banking club but honestly not great support and partially cliquey in sharing questions so was wondering if any of y'all have any recs on how to prep. thanks! Will be locking in

nice UGC marketing bro!
Margin of alpha is such a shit website. I bought it and half the answers to questions were wrong.
where can u find that?
margin of alpha is known to be a complete scam. AVOID.
following
respect the hustle. agree with other poster and most importantly practice practice practice. You might know how to solve the question but don't know how shit you sound when you're speaking it outloud - this applies to both technicals and behaviorals. Record yourself and listen to it. Many people hate it but you have to force yourself to do it and then critisize it and improve
There are a couple sites that were great at providing interview questions (drillcore ai was a really good resource).
Guys go enjoy christmas. I don't tell my analysts to take time of to post on WSO cmon
Oh yea and since I'm on this post already, make sure you prep industry specific for SF/regionals, e.g., they might be biotech or technology groups. You WILL get asked industry questions
it's not that hard just study ya'll or maybe you guys aren't cut out for the job anyways??
Getting crushed on a deal right now unfortunately and just doom scrolling WSO to see prospects getting crushed with doing technicals haha. The life never ends
Getting crushed on Christmas Eve is rough dawg, good luck man.
he likes it rough
Make sure you know M&A balance sheet adjustments (specifically goodwill and noncontrolling interests), and reverse LBOs (they give you a bunch variables including MoM/IRR and ask you to solve for the starting equity cheque, but they will make it a pain in the ass by forcing you to calculate annual LFCF). Reply if you want me to send interview questions from last year.

Second Capital Interview Experts! Used it for my EVR/PJT/CVP interviews and felt very well prepared - ended up landing an offer at one of the shops. Keep in mind, even if you have a firm's past interview questions you still have to put in the work and go through them.
In my eyes, you get what you pay for so I think the ROI is worth it to land an IB gig.
Could you send me those? Thanks! Merry Xmas
Could I also have those guides per chance? Merry Christmas!
Hi, would also appreciate it if you could share the guides. Merry Christmas!

Most finance clubs will keep interview banks and some even create guides. Try reaching out / joining them to get access to more Qs
CVP / PWP interviews were hard as fuck. All mental math and brain teasers on top of multi-step accounting and pretty challenging LBO questions. Got raped.
Have gotten interview questions from marginofalpha, very helpful site for referencing old questions and made me feel a lot more prepared, would recommend checking it out.
Wow, appreciate you sharing these with us. People tend to gatekeep this type of stuff so kind of surprised it's here. Anyways, Merry Christmas and thanks again!
uhh I interview for Evercore houston and we did not ask those questions.... think you made them up brother
Edit: he changed his comment, he was promoting his own platform called drillcore lol ...
lol but they said it has to be "from the Houston interviews this year"
Ok aside from all this drama going on, I'm actually curious what the answer is. I found the brainteasers online pretty quickly. I got 50% for the tax rate and 1x coverage ratio. Can someone confirm pls?
Um what is going on. I can easily change my identity to VP in IB and claim I'm on the recruiting team. The moral of the story is to treat everything you read online with a grain of salt. The reality is the majority of these threads are students who claim they're already in the field. I highly doubt VPs are active on these threads.
brother stop lying to people ... this will be my last comment because i'm traveling and have better things to do with my time. I hate it when people say oh these are the questions because they frankly weren't the questions we asked... we definitely did not ask a simple interest coverage ratio question like that in houston....
Dang man you caught me, next time I won't post any more interview questions. Thank you Mr. VP and can you please move me to the next round?
