Hey chimps,
I have a technical interview with a BB scheduled in the following days. It is for an off-cycle internship.
What are the most common questions that I have to expect/prepare?
Thanks buds.

Career Resources
All fair game, BBs tend to ask more basic technicals from what I have experienced. Of course this is not an exhaustive list
- Walk me through a DCF
- What is WACC, how to calculate it. Alternatives to measuring cost of capital? (CAPM)
- What is a terminal value, two ways to calculate it
- Walk me from revenue to unlevered FCF; what is the difference between levered vs. unlevered
- How do you calculate an implied share price through comparable companies analysis (Walk me through a comps analysis)
- When to use EBIT multiple vs. EBITDA multiple
- Know how to calculate Enterprise Value
Yo, when do you use EBITDA vs. EBIT?
EBITDA: companies that are not D&A intensive like software companies or consulting firms
EBIT: companies that have high capex / D&A like industrials, manufacturing, etc
Still don’t understand why they ask such easy questions compared to EB
BB interview?
Probably walk me through the hokey-pokey dance and can you count to 10?
