Evercore associate lateral interview technicals

Ignore title, currently a 2nd year associate. I'm rusty with interviews as haven't looked to lateral for 4 years now - anyone have a sense of potential "advanced" technical questions that would be suitable for an associate level?

In an Evercore associate lateral interview, when they mention "technical", they're usually referring to questions that test your knowledge of finance concepts, accounting, and valuation methods. As an associate, you can expect these to be more advanced. Here are some potential areas they might delve into:

  1. Detailed walk-throughs of financial modeling, including DCF, LBO, and M&A models.
  2. Deep dives into financial statements and their interconnections.
  3. Advanced accounting topics like Deferred Tax Assets/Liabilities.
  4. Complex valuation methodologies and when to use them.
  5. Scenario analysis based on changes in various financial parameters.
  6. Understanding and explaining the impact of certain events on a company's financials.

Remember, the goal of these technical questions is to assess your ability to handle the kind of work you'd be doing as an associate. So, brush up on your financial modeling skills, make sure you're comfortable with accounting principles, and be ready to showcase your analytical abilities. Good luck!
