First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at ROTH Capital Partners.
Equity Research Intern
The interview process started with a phone screening. They asked a lot about my experience with financial models and some behavioral questions. The technical part was light, focusing on basic IB questions. I didn't need to know more than 5 questions from the IB 400, and there was no mention of how depreciation affects the financial statements.
- Can you introduce yourself and explain your interest in Equity Research?
- Describe your experience working with financial models.
- What are some behavioral questions you were asked?
Equity Research Analyst
I was given a take-home assignment where I had to build a financial model for an oil and gas company. The interview itself mostly focused on that model, discussing my assumptions, valuation method, and sensitivity analysis.
- Could you discuss financial statements?
- Can you tell me about the sector?
Equity Research Analyst Intern
I chatted with them about my resume, and they hit me with a simple technical question about EBIT vs. EBITDA. It was all pretty standard IB stuff, nothing I hadn't prepped for. The whole thing went super smoothly, and I felt pretty good about it.
- Tell me about your resume.
- Explain the difference between EBIT and EBITDA.
- Can you share a behavioral example?
Intern
The interview process was incredibly unprofessional. The Associate who will lead the team asks you to complete a case study first. After that, you get invited for an interview with the Associate and an Analyst. The Associate doesn't even speak English, and the Analyst leads the interview while being extremely rude and condescending. A few days later, I emailed back, but the team didn't even have the common courtesy to reply to a candidate they asked to do a case study and had multiple interviews with. It was extremely unprofessional.
- Can you explain your approach to the case study?
