Based on the most helpful WSO content, there isn't specific information about the exact interview process for Cowen's Healthcare (HC) group in San Francisco. However, general insights on Cowen's recruitment process suggest that it may involve a mix of technical and behavioral questions, similar to other investment banking interviews.

If you're preparing, here are some actionable tips: 1. Technical Prep: Brush up on financial modeling, valuation methods (DCF, comps, precedent transactions), and accounting basics. WSO's Financial Modeling Resources and Investment Banking Interview Prep materials could be helpful. 2. Behavioral Questions: Be ready to discuss your resume, motivations for IB, and why you're interested in healthcare banking specifically. Practice with mock interviews if possible. 3. Healthcare-Specific Knowledge: Familiarize yourself with recent trends in the healthcare sector, especially M&A activity, as it could come up during the interview.

If you're looking for more tailored advice, consider checking out WSO's Mock Interviews with Pros or Resume Reviews by Professionals to refine your preparation. Good luck!

Yeah, happy to help. You will have a 1st round, 2nd round, and in person Superday which will last 4 hours. Also to be frank with you from what my friends at TD told me, this past summer the HC interns worked nearly 100+ hours every week. And the return rate was 60% across SF & NY. Hope this helps and best of luck man! 

 

 That truly helps man. Truly appreciate your help and insights. Going through it right now and love the people, just a little unique of a process. Are your friends in SF or NYC?
