PRE-TEST: These interview questions are fired at you now in quick succession by two bankers sitting opposite you. Are you capable of answering them on-cue, right now, with complete structure and accuracy? "How would you calculate the value of a bond? What stocks do you follow? Do you play golf? What's the best idea you've ever had and how will you top it? What is put-call parity? Tell me about a time you came up with an innovative solution to a complex problem. Without using paper, what is 17 x 8.5?" Did you know that these are only a few of the 80+ questions that you could get asked at your investment banking interview... and you only get one chance to make your impression on these busy people? Did you know that you don't need over-complicated theories that take countless hours to learn before you know how to answer IB technical questions... you just need some structure and some simple, basic knowledge? |
From: Brett Riley
Wednesday, 10:12 a.m.
But what really makes me wonder is the nervousness and anxiety that intelligent, qualified people go through before an interview at an investment bank because of the uncertainty they face – uncertainty of (1) what the interviewer is going to ask, and (2) how to exactly answer those questions so that you get offered the job.
The Investment Banking industry is dominated by such |
("And why I'm the guy to help YOU!")
I know you may have some concerns...
After all -- who am I to be giving YOU advice about your investment banking interviews? And, more important, how can you trust what I'm telling you?
These are important questions.
My name is Brett Riley, and when it comes to the stress of investment banking interviews, I know exactly how you feel. Believe me, I've been there myself. My first interview was a disaster – Now I realize it, I was only very slightly prepared – I sweated, I somehow stumbled through the technical questions, and sat through those awkward silences where the interviewers just stared at me!
Worst of all, the answers that I did give were just not convincing enough to display that I was the right guy for them. Needless to say, I didn't get the job and was completely confused.
My final round at the firm was tough – but I ended up getting a full-time offer! I was happy, excited, but most of all relieved, because I had security for when I left college. I then went for an interview at another firm that I had lined up…the system I had prepared worked, and I got the job – again! I was sure that it was a fluke and I tested it out at a third firm, and guess what…I landed an offer with them too!
By the 5th job offer I received, I knew I had something very powerful and valuable in my hands and thought to myself, ‘There's a secret to this…' The interviews were actually becoming easier!

If the interviewer asked me about a time when I had been in a leadership position and there was a difficult member of the team who was causing some aggravation, and how I handled this situation, I would say: 'I decided to sit him down and outlined his specific skills, which were X, Y and Z. I told him that the team needed his skills and of course his valuable input. I reminded him of how exciting it would be if the team accomplished our goal. I kept a friendly attitude and carefully addressed the fact that his attitudes/actions were not congruent with what I knew he was capable of and reminded him of his past successes. The meeting ended on an energetic note and he assured me of his commitment; he only had to be reminded of why the goal, and why working with our team with his specific expertise, motivated him. He was quickly back on track, achieving A, B and C, and ended up a great person to work with. I was proud to have him on our team.' |
Here's what I'd say when asked a question like 'What is Beta?': 'Well, beta is a measure of the sensitivity of a security's return in relation to the market. If a stock has a beta of more than 1, it means that it is more volatile, or 'swings more' than the market. And if a stock has a beta of 1, it is as risky as the market. If the beta is less than 1, the stock moves less than the market. But a stock with a higher beta and therefore a higher risk would also indicate a higher return and vice versa. Basically, a stable blue-chip would have a beta of close to 1, where a volatile bio-tech firm would probably have a beta of more than 1.' |
Surveys have shown that 81% of all IB candidates who fail at interview level fail because of a lack of preparation.
And only 1% of the 100,000 candidates in any intake year are offered jobs – Which is why I'm confident that you will place yourself amongst that 1%, because...
I'm going to show you...

"Last year, he made over $80,000 (USD) in Corporate Finance. He originally got his job by using our materials. We caught up with him..." R.S., N.Y. |

But my favorite was recently receiving an order from an INTERVIEWER at a top American Investment Bank who needed a wider range of questions to ask her candidates ;) ! |
