👋🏼 Hi, all! I’m new to Fish Bowl. Anyone here with senior management/executive interview expertise?

I landed a Sr. Management interview and would like to anticipate some of the questions and the best way to respond (besides using the STAR method).

What insight can you share?

Thank you!

Find out everything about the company, search the news, LinkedIn members, any recent changes etc.
Have a clear plan on your first week/month/year as you will be asked about it. It’s no good saying it will all depend on what you learn once you stared. They will need to know your thinking and to see that you’ve invested time into this already.
Don’t forget to show your human side, with stories, views to share, examples of dealing with colleagues in the past. They will be trying to figure out what it’s like to work with you, so help them.
Good luck and let us know how you get on!

Should we be willing to accept a paycut when exiting to the buy side from IB?
I am currently an A3 with good prospects to become an associate next year which would translate into £100k/year. I have been interviewing to buy-side firms in the UK and they all are offering me between £70-80k for my level of experience. I understand that there is more visibility on bonus / job security / carry, but was this lower salary the case before? Did PE fail to adjust to the IB payrises last year?

I just received this email by a recruiter:

"One thing I want to run by you again is the salary range. I asked you about it when we spoke and you mentioned a range. I would say that we would be able to offer a salary more in the lower part of that range, so I just want to make sure it is still relevant for you? We think l that you would have exciting development possibilities with us"

the lower part of that range, is acceptable, but low for market in the area. Should i ask about benefits?
