Standard case interview. They give you a problem and have you walk through it. Less MBB style so no huge math problems but yeah... standard case style interview and usually not all with partners...

They have a problem with work life balance. Directors pulling 100 hour weeks, staff sleeping in the office, people staffed on a case and multiple proposals at the same time.

At the same time, they don’t want to pay staff. The base increase from SA1 to SA2 and SA2 to SA3 is lower than inflation, you actually lose money by working at S&

This is IB hours and not even close to IB pay.

3 industry leads are ex S& so can see that

Thanks for the help team

Thank god for that! Luckily Ive been prepping for McK

That’s the right approach

Am I expected to lead?

Assuming it could be anything from Rev/Cost/Profit drill down to Market entry/Product development.

At the Partner level is it usually more vague and unstructured?

It is not. Its for Industrials

Tell me more S&2! I have an interview coming up with FS. Do they have trouble selling and getting projects? Now I'm worried..

I’ve had radio silence from a small investment bank for about a week now. I’ve completed several rounds of interviews, but last Thursday the firm reposted the job I’ve been interviewing for. On Friday the headhunter said that they’re not sourcing new candidates and it’s probably just LinkedIn automatically refreshing the listing. She said they had a busy week last week but will make a final decision this week - is the delay and radio silence a bad sign or is this typical for experienced hiring?
