Santa Monica, CAPosted Nov 2025 · Candidate report, summarized by Dataford

I went through a tougher, MD-heavy sequence where the difficulty came from both depth of finance questions and the intensity of some interviewer styles.

MD rounds (multiple before final) — Three separate rounds all with MDs, mixing technical questions, behavioral prompts, and verbal thought-style exercises.
Final round — A concluding discussion that continued the same mix and tested whether I could clearly articulate my interest in the relevant asset class. Outcome: I didn’t get an offer; the takeaway is to prepare structured credit/portfolio explanations and be ready for different levels of interviewer intensity.
