I had a screening call with a recruiter and four 30 minute interviews. There was no case study, but I had FDD experience going into the process so not sure if that’s why they left it out. The interviews consisted of a pretty even split of behavioral questions, FDD specific topics (QoE, NWC, Net Debt, etc.), and my prior work experience.

I already had FDD experience, so for me it was mostly questions about what I’ve worked on specifically in past deals, key deal issues I’ve came across, EBITDA adjustments I’ve calculated, and other NWC issues.

If you don’t have FDD experience they’ll probably ask questions to see if you’ve done your research and understand the basics like QoE, EBITDA adjustments and NWC. I doubt they’d ask super technical questions given you don’t have FDD experience, but I’d run a google search on those terms just to get a feel.

I believe there is a case study

Considering a move in-house to NBC Universal in any litigation role (though I’d really go to wherever there is a need, whether litigation or business affairs generally). Coming from 4th year law firm litigation experience in a variety of areas but mostly data breach, e-discovery, breach of K. Do I apply with an employee referral or via LinkedIn recruiter that reached out? Alternatively, if anyone has experience applying/at NBCU, I’d so appreciate general advice :) TIA.

Lots of talk about CohnReznick on here lately… let’s address a few points.

1) Yes, our salaries are in line with B4. Happy to discuss specifics with the skeptics.
2) We are one of the few firms still actively hiring people without FDD experience.
3) Our WLB is miles better than B4.
4) Yes, we are paying strong referral bonuses because our practice has literally doubled in the past year.
5) All of the above is due to a strong pipeline and significant growth within the practice.
