Los Angeles, CAPosted Nov 2018 · Candidate report, summarized by Dataford

My process started with a written exam that felt intense and unusually specific.

It was about an hour, packed with valuation questions and even a task involving creating financial analysis while managing time. There was also an industry research component, and the whole thing made it clear they wanted technical thinking tested before I even sat down for discussion.

After the exam, the interviews became stiff and formal in a way that stood out. The behavioral portion was handled by the MD, but the VP pushed a lot of technicals, especially around accounting, and the questions were literally printed out as a stack. That made the experience feel more like working through
