IBD Consumer Retail Interview

I am getting an interview next friday for the IBD Consumer Retail Group.
I would like to know if you could help me with specific questions of the industry, you have received in similar interviews as also valuation methodology for consumer retail companies

Thanks a lot

Crg is ebitda driven so in terms of valuation methodologies, it's not too different. Obviously there'll be industry specific metrics/considerations like same store sales, leases, etc but i would be surprised if you got grilled on this as an entry level hire.

Just know industry current events and make sure you know why CRG.

 

I agree with kidflash..nothing too different but follow news specific on consumer retail group.

btw...how did you get this interview (ocr?). Also, do you have prior IB experiences?
