Hey,
I have a FT Interview for an Associate spot with two diff teams at Credit Suisse. There are 3 interviews - 1 with each group, and 1 tech, that run 30 minutes each.
Has anyone gone through this process and can shed some light on what questions I can anticipate?
Thanks,

How did they go?
I would anticipate a ding based on what I've seen over there so far.
Three interviews. 2 behaviors and a Tech. The behaviors were a couple of background questions with many follow-ups. The techs were:
-Walk me through valuing a private company -Increase Depr. by $10M and tax rate is 40%. Walk me through the changes in the statements -How would a PE firm increase the value of a portfolio before selling it off -What is the Beta of a lottery ticket
Kimbo,
What have you seen over there that would lead you to suggest that?
I also had the same interview experience in the final round on Friday, and I haven't received a call with good news yet. I wonder how many people were in that round and what % they actually plan on hiring.
My close friend is interviewing with CS now as well. What groups are you interviewing with? He had 2 rounds and the feedback that he got is very optimistic.

2 Associates in the Energy groups and 1 VP. I didn't really get much feedback one way or the other
