Any tips for PE final rounds for those who were successful? I think they tend to focus less on case and more on fit (my first rounds had all been over the phone), but any tips would be amazing

Upper MM firm? Would expect a heavy case emphasis. The bigger the fund usually (not always) entails higher case emphasis as they will be more structured in their approach but again so dependent on the fund. Best advice anyone could give on here is to reach out to others already working there to provide guidance but assuming you have already done so

Did you do a modeling test? If not, you might get one.

Just successfully went through an off cycle process. Be ready for anything and everything. The firm I work at now made me do 3 modeling tests before I got an offer. Be able to do a mini LBO in excel in 15-20 min and a 3 statement in <1 hour so you have time to think through the qualitative stuff. Also, don’t forget to prepare you’re basic accounting questions.

Deal or Ops?

Deal side mostly but it’s a deal / ops split role that mainly hires consultants

Modeling test, case, fit test / lunch with team can all be expected

I’m having my performance review tomorrow. Looked at my goals last year which was set before the pandemic really hit. Since it really affected business and travel I didn’t hit most of my goals. Plus I was really depressed (who wasn’t really) so I didn’t take much initiative. What’s a good way to navigate this...?
