CIM Group Interview Excel Test

Hello,

I have an interview as an analyst coming up with CIM Group and I was told there would be an excel test during the interview.

I will have an MS Finance in about a week, so I have experience with financial modeling but I am a little concerned as we did not cover any real estate in our program (mainly risk mgmt, fixed income, derivatives, equities, and econometrics w/python).

Has anyone taken and excel test with CIM Group or comparable shops?

I'm expecting DCF modeling, and building a pivot tables/charts but not sure what else to expect..

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks!
