They will definitely ask you about your knowledge of 13-week cash flow forecasting. Restructuring is a relationship-driven field, and personality/how you present yourself to unusual questions/scenarios and how you would approach them with your thought process on the spot may be very relevant considering that’s part of the every day job. Understand all cash flow implications and how a borrowing base works.

This will also vary depending if your doing more operational or financial restructuring.

What firm?

It's very technical. Not sure what your background is but a firm I interviewed with (not Deloitte) asked very detailed questions about DCFs and LBOs . For some reason, consultants value the DCF very highly.

Ive been using a modeling course at wall street prep to which I got access through my school. I have an interview in a couple of days too but not sure what they would be asking, let me know if you want to exchange tips

I had 3 rounds of interviews for one role and was turned down and offered to interview for a different role instead. I had an interview with the hiring manager for the different role last week. When my feedback is considered, do they look at just the hiring manager for the new role or also feedback from the 3 rounds of interviewers from the first role I missed?

Hi fishes! Nagarro declined the counter offer letter ₹33,00,000 + shares worth 4.5LPA

Nagarro offered 18LPA. Initially I told HR for 22 but he mentioned 18 into their internal portal to their senior so after clearing all interview rounds I got 18.

When I asked the HR, he told me to accept it for now and bring the counter offer letter so they can revise offer letter.

But now they declined. Weird.

Coming from Africa, I started my own practice in my country 2 years ago while having my full time job with Deloitte (discussed with my partner). With the demand I have many clients now and managing both is killing me, I know I should leave. The problem now becomes that I like my boss so much, he did a lot of my career and was always supportive. He's 68 and planning to retire soon and should make me partner by the next 2 yrs. I am lost 😭 and stuck to make a clear decision. Any help ?

So stuck. What do I do? I joined this firm a year ago (4 yrs exp total) to grow/get more court/client exposure. Then 2 more-experienced associates were hired, pandemic, & all cases are divided between the other 2. I have no defined tasks except deficiency letters or the odd pro bono case. Boss claims it's mentoring. I still need to meet bill req.

Last wk Boss said I'll do more & my work was good, but today said I can't 2nd chair bc I don't have experience. I'm doing less now than my prior firm.
