Hey there!
Congrats on getting invited for the test! Based on the most helpful WSO content, the Apollo PE process typically involves several rounds of interviews, including technical and behavioral questions, as well as case studies.
As for the "Accounting and Finance" test, it's likely to assess your knowledge in these areas. It could cover topics like financial statement analysis, valuation methods, and maybe even some LBO modeling.
Remember, the WSO Academy offers a Private Equity Interview Bootcamp that includes detailed PE LBO tests and cases. It might be a good idea to check that out to prepare for your upcoming process.
Best of luck, and remember, every monkey can learn to crack a nut, but it takes a smart one to crack a deal!

bump - any insight here?
Is this for the Associate role?
yes
Anyone did the test this week?
Me
Is it just a normal LBO test? How did you find it?
Hi Analyst 2, was the test an LBO or what exactly was it? Any input would be greatly appreciated!
Pretty hard from what i've heard given the time constraint.
Think you need to figure out the value drivers of an LBO and show the impact of various changes (i.e. how much did margin expansion contribute to your return)
Good luck.
Hi, do you have any more insight into the structure of the test? Is it an LBO?
Is the test an LBO test what can be expected? Many thanks! Any input would be highly appreciated!
When is your test?
Same question, is it an LBO? - have this schedule for this week and any insight would be highly appreciated!

Did you take it in their office?
Anyone heard back yet?
Not on my side. And I did it last week…

Can you share if it was just an LBO model or did you had to do any other stuff as well?
Anyone can share any insights on what HH helped them get into the Apollo interview process?
