J'ai passé un entretien chez FocalPoint Partners
Entretien
Dropped my resume and networked a little bit; phone interview invite a few days after resume drop; interviewed with analyst and associate; heard back about 2 days later; no hirevues or digital interviews involved. Overall great experience and would recommend
Networked with a couple of analysts / associates and got referred to some directors/VPs. Couple of chats with 80% behavioral 20% technical then a 3 statement modeling test. The modeling test wasn't too bad, practice a couple 3 statement models and you will be fine.

I had a phone screen with an associate, followed by an M&A case study with a three hour limit. The case was pretty straight forward - information on the target and most of the assumptions were given. It required constructing a teaser and a three statement model. I didn't receive an offer because they were looking for a more experienced analyst.

Question 1
Standard banking questions. How does X affect the three statements? Walk through the financial statements. How do they connect?
