I have an interview coming up for one the Big 4 for Deal Advisory (Financial Modeling/ M&A) . I've done 2 interviews so far - 1 w/ HR and 1 w/ directors.
They've invited for a 3rd interview:
1h30 - 45min live case and 45mins of "fit"

What should I prepare for the 45 live case? I'm thinking 3 statements models but 45mins seem very short

Any advice is appreciated!

Got to a modeling round for a PE Firm and it’s later today. Really like the people but not a big fan of the investment strategy. Wondering if withdrawing from the process right now would hurt my relationship with the HH’s?

I’m working with them for a few firms I’m way more interested in but aren’t kicking off for the next week or two. Should I just do the model test and withdraw, or would beforehand work as well? Any insight would be helpful

Hi fishes,

Service bAsed companies are not releasing offers nowadays. I have left looking for offers from any of service based companies. Except TCS, All are frauds and TCS won’t pay much anyway so done. They will lure you to give interviews and later when all rounds are done and docs are submitted, they will come and say we can’t pay you. I have faced the same with capegemini, tech Mahindra, infosys, cognizant. Is this the case with anyone ? Or am I the only one with bad luck
