First round sounds fairly straightforward since it’s a phone call and mostly behavioral. Could you share what the Superday typically looks like? Should I expect more advanced technical questions (investment banking or PE-focused), including a very in-depth LBO understanding, or would they be more lenient given that it's only a summer analyst role? Also, do you have any insight into their return offer rate?
Very much focused on fit over technical capabilities, although its certaintly important.
Good to be quite prepared for the stuff mentioned above, however, you can expect things like situational questions, questions about their PortCo's beyond just why you're interested (which one you like/dislike), industry trends, understanding operating models of b2b saas/valuing, etc.
Something I think you should also be prepared for is pitching a company and speaking about it quite well. Be prepared to defend as well as acknowledge risks beyond why you think its a good investment.

Anyone have any idea how interview process is for PE at Battery Ventures in regards to difficulty? I heard first round is through a phone call.
super chill – all behavioral

My understanding is as follows:
How was the first round?
Do they give return offers?
are superdays out?
Has anyone heard back since the third/fourth round?
