Just had a final round interview 2 weeks ago - they said I’d know by last week, but have yet to hear anything from them. What’s the right protocol for reaching out? I’ve got another offer but this is my first choice.

Tell them you are excited about the opportunity and while this is your first choice, you have another pending offer and are wondering if it would be possible for an expedited decision

Any company worth their salt is not going to ask you that question. It’s unprofessional. Either they will agree or not in which case you basically have your answer

Just go for it. Less posting here, more emailing there :)

This was two weeks ago! Reach out and let them know how excited you are about the offer and that it is your first choice, but now you have another offer in hand so need to know if they will be moving forward with you. That shows you value yourself and them.

These are the right answers. Leverage your offer.

One last question - would it be more prudent to ask HR or some of the investment professionals that I’ve developed a rapport with?

Either way is likely fine

How did this go OP?

Let’s be real, nobody likes wasting time on a application and interview to get a lower offer. Thank you.

Any tips for the 30 min PE case studies? I’ve had trouble finding the balance between asking more qualitatively about the company so as to understand its competitive landscape etc to inform assumptions and just straight up asking for numbers. I guess if the goal is to build a LBO, what are okay questions to ask without just appearing straight up asking as if you aren’t thinking about it? E.g. is this company capital intensive? Vs. historically, what % of sales is spent on capex?
