Interview
I have only gone through the video interview portion, which is the first part. The questions were super difficult to answer, BE PREPARED!!! They ask a lot of questions about finance, not you as a person. I was only asked one question (Tell me about yourself and your previous work experience), which was the only question where I explained my experiences. I was asked 7 questions, 6 of which were to provide a stock pitch, advantages of an IPO, and the differences between equity and debt issuance
