The Julis-Rabinowitz Center for Public Policy and Finance and the Bendheim Center for Finance are pleased to announce the Finance Interview Prep Workshop, led by Wall Street Prep. 

This workshop is geared to students pursuing opportunities in finance, banking, public finance, financial regulation, economic development, or in the Federal Reserve system. It shows students headed into recruitment how to effectively answer common finance interview questions. The workshop will be held on Wednesday, January 22, and Thursday, January 23, from 1:30 – 5:30 pm (ET).  If you register and are confirmed to attend, you must attend both days.

To apply to attend the workshop, please complete the Google Form by the January 6 deadline by clicking on the following link: https://forms.gle/ZZfnDgU1EsF2JLor5

Space in this workshop is limited, and preference will be given to juniors and sophomores.  

Please note that you will receive a confirmation by January 10, 2025, whether you have a spot at the workshop.

Pre-requisite: Wall Street Prep (WSP) believes that the in-person training, which is modeling-intensive, is significantly improved with a structured pre-training program that covers core Excel functionality. Accordingly, WSP will set up all students with the online Crash Course in Excel, which takes approximately 2-5 hours to complete prior to the workshop.

Below outlines the curriculum for the seminar (may be subject to change):

  • Accounting & financial statements analysis
  • Income statement
  • Balance sheet
  • Cash flow statement
  • Combining the three financial statements
  • Valuation techniques
  • Comparable company analysis
  • Discounted cash flow analysis
  • Leveraged buyout analysis
  • Valuation techniques
  • Discounted cash flow analysis (continued)
  • Leveraged buyout analysis
  • IB interview tips/best practices

In addition, all workshop participants will have a 12-month post-seminar access to a Support Team, whom participants can contact with any content-related questions, and access to the Ultimate Guide to Technical Finance Interview online course and accompanying Technical Finance Question Bank.
