Case Technical
The process involved several rounds. It began with casual coffee chats that eventually led to a first-round case study. The case study was pretty straightforward but required a solid understanding of renewables and project financing models. Following that, there was another interview with a banker. It took a while to get a response after that.

I had a model test, which was pretty easy, followed by an interview with a current analyst. I didn't get to the second round, but the first round had mostly behavioral questions with some technical ones.

Behavioral Technical
I had a phone interview scheduled with someone, but they didn't show up. This happened three times before I could finally connect with someone. When I finally spoke to them, they asked some odd questions, and their connection was terrible. They sounded out of breath, like they had just finished working out. A company that can't keep its word or be on time isn't going to last.
Confirmed questions1 question
- Could you explain what FCF is?
