Kind team, very communicative HR. The interview process was overall enjoyable although my specific process was a little stretched out meaning I was sitting around waiting for a reply for a while.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
What would have a higher valuation for a target company, a pension plan or a private equity firm?
They first ask you to do a HireView and then call you for an interview which is a mix of behavioral and technical questions. They also ask you about yourself and the company.
General behavioural questions, and some questions relating to the specific industry, in my case Energy IB. Otherwise all standard IB questions that you can find on the WallStreetPrep Red Book.
