I will be interviewing for an associate position with a mid-sized growth equity firm in SF in a few weeks and am looking for some insight on how to prepare. I do not have banking/finance experience so am a little concerned about any technical questions (i.e. those that would require knowing formulas or doing any calculations).
I have been told the role will involve a significant amount of sourcing, but another part of the role is for sure diligence on potential investments.
I am expecting questions in the following categories: 1. My previous work experience / walkthrough of my projects 2. Pitching a potential investment in high growth start-ups 3. Questions regarding their industries of focus (i.e. what are the major trends in the tech space, what sectors do you like, etc.) 4. Questions regarding a couple of their currently portfolio companies / if I think it was a good investment 5. Why do I want to work in growth equity / this firm / behavioral questions
Aside from those, I was wondering if there were any common technical questions that I should prepare for. I know in banking there are a number of DCF/accounting questions, and in PE LBO questions, but those are not relevant for a growth equity shop that makes early to mid stage investments.
Thank you for any help.
