I have an interview in about 2 weeks for an analyst position. I've done the LBO modeling course from Wall Street Prep and know how the process works. Assuming that's all I know, any advice on how I can go about prepping? Any advice will help greatly.
Thanks

I prepared for mine by knowing the direction of treasury yields backwards and forwards as well as the reasons behind them. As for technicals, I studied LBO mechanics and what effect different sources of debt would have on the deal (who finances, what rate, what is the loan against) as well as reading everything there is to read about LevFin. At this point, its about being able to talk about your technical training in deal context.
Check out an article here about how to think like a credit investor- I thought it was a great primer. Cannot remember the name of it, however.
There are some really good primers that helped me, as well as modeling my ass off. Recently started my first year of buy-side leveraged finance, PM if you have any questions.

LevFin - What questions to expect in an interview? (Originally Posted: 01/13/2010)
What questions should I expect in interview on previous deal exp (deal pricing, intercreditor issues, reasons for lending , covenants , collateral analysis etc) , and on modeling and technical side. When secured credit facility refinanced existing credit facility whether the interviewer can focus on previous credit facilty and whether I am expected to know about prev credit facility
Thanks in advance
Do you have experience?
If so I'd expect to talk through the deal process and logic behind why deal was priced as it was, why firm issued capital as it did, what covenants put in place and why (esp any that are non standard)
I'd only expect to discuss prev credit facility in context of explaining why it needed to be taken outl
