First round over the phone. Half personal/get-to-know-you, half technical. Asked standard finance questions similar to a banking interview. Final round was a super day at the office, consisting of 3-4 rounds of interviews.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
How does $40 of depreciation impact the financial statements
Initial call for 1 hour, 30 min background/behaviorals and 30 min basic M&A technicals, if you have studied the IB 400 questions you should be okay for the technicals as they are very basic
Went through two phone interviews. These are technical in nature, so be prepared to answer typical banking-type technical questions about valuation, modeling, etc. Also the typical why AT&T, why corporate development, why Dallas. After you pass the phone interviews, you will see the team in person for a round robin half day interview where you would talk to around 5-6 professionals in the group. Still some technical thrown in there, but highly dependent on the person.
