Qatalyst Partners First Round Interview for Full-Time
I just received an invite for a first-round interview with Qatalyst Partners for their full-time position for 2020 in SF. I currently am working as a summer analyst at a BB for S&T in New York, and this feels completely different considering its boutique, and investment banking in SF. Do you guys have any thoughts on how I can spin my upcoming summer experience to make it look favorable to a boutique investment bank? Do you think they would look down on it?
I also have very little experience in interviewing with a boutique firm at all, and most of my interviews were with Sales and Trading or Prop Trading firms. Do you guys know what to expect from Qatalyst? Other than the usual, why Qatalyst, why (tech) investment banking, etc. Has anyone had experience in interviewing with them before?

Qatalyst is a bunch of mavericks tbh. Don't feel like you'd be out of place there because you don't have traditional IB experience. But you need to be on top of your shit. Super sharp people there, probably some of the brightest on the street.
Agreed make sure you know why tech and the tech space cold - ie recent deals, acquisitive firms vs firms that prefer organic growth and various verticals in tech. Also think about how you'd got about valuing a fast growing loss making tech firm.
Any info on first round interview?
have spoken to multiple analysts there and they were some of the smartest people i've networked with. They were also very nice and said to know your resume front and back. if that means you wrote about modeling on your resume, make sure you remember all your assumptions and why you made them. Also prep a company and vertical to talk about DEEPLY, because they want bankers who are insanely invested in technology for the long term. So make sure you know the company and its industry. This was all recommended to me before a SA interview there and it is not to scare you, but instead help you.
