Not for a senior, at least from me. Usually resume / prior experience works but I may try to talk shop a little and if you put any sort of publication on your resume I’m going to read it and ask you questions. Generally, looking for someone articulate and who seems like a hard worker / eager to learn.

I transferred into FDD internally, but I think there may be a case study. Basically be able to describe types of QofE/NWC adjustments, calculate NWC from a high level, be able to give a couple examples of adjustments , be able to take some monthly financials or yearly, and call out trends/potential adjustments, etc. based on descriptions of the business in the case study. Maybe also know how to calculate DSO, DPO, DHO too.

Yes. PwC1 - We still administer a Case Study at PwC. I’d recommend you look at Vantage for Quality of Earnings, Working Capital, and Debt-Like-Analysis trainings.

To clients.) and simultaneously ask more questions and ask fewer questions. Should I just assume this is unattainable and look for a new job again?
