Bump!
Is this for London?
I did a first round last year and it was pretty intense. First section was a deal walk-through of my sophomore summer internship. Second section was how would I diligence/value a software company (interviewer was in the software buyout group, SIG if I remember correctly?). Didn't get a second round.
Oh interesting, thanks for sharing! How would you recommend preparing for it in hindsight? What performance metrics/ dynamics was the software case centered around? Would appreciate any insight!
