I applied for this role through my school's job board and got a first round phone interview. It was half behavioral and half technical questions. The interviewer was nice, but I wasn't prepared enough for the technical questions.

Behavioral Technical
First round was a 30 minute chill call. The interviewer was super nice and easy to talk to. It started with a 'walk me through your resume' type of thing and then went into questions specifically about my resume. For the technical part, they asked about different company valuation methods and how to value a pre-revenue company, specifically focusing on multiples like EBITDA, free cash flow, and EV/Revenue. I think they might have asked a basic accounting question too, and definitely 'walk me through a DCF'.

Technical Behavioral
The overall vibe was pretty chill. It was a one-hour back-to-back interview. They threw in some technical questions, but it was mostly behavioral stuff. The people were easy to chat with. I had one round of interviews, but didn't hear back.
