Definitely know how to answer the “walk me through a DCF” question. I can almost guarantee it’ll be one of your questions. Honestly, if you google “IB interview questions” it’ll give you a pretty solid idea of what to expect

Look on Glassdoor, Wall Street Oasis etc. for typical interview questions - often you can even find stuff specific to the firm you’re interviewing at. Practicing the ones you see come up all the time is a good start.

CFP study programs:

I'm a little confused on Danko - does he offer a self-study option for the coursework requirement? On his website it looks like each module has a 4-day virtual class which I wouldn't be able to attend due to working full time. Does this program also include self-study material, and the classes are just supplementary/optional? I was also looking at Dalton for self-study and Danko for test prep. Thoughts?

TIA

Where do you find the time to get everything done in the day when you have multiple partners, associates and equity partners that interrupt you and want things turned around immediately while simultaneously working on deadlines? I feel like I’m the only one that can’t manage a 70+ case load without letting someone down. I constantly have to say “Can I do this tomorrow?” Etc. I don’t even have time to bill on the clock. I work until 7p at least every night. Top 10 family law firm.
