How to prepare for this one

Experienced hiring tests what you have already done: a deal, model or investment idea you can walk through in detail, the technicals of the seat, and a clear reason for the move. Expect a case or modelling test before the final round.

Lev unrolls one long scroll marked your deal across a table in front of three seated Levs, one of whom leans in with a magnifying glass. A note on the table reads walk us through it. — At this level they put the CV aside and ask for one deal, line by line.

Practise it, don't just read it

Free, no sign-up, and short enough to finish before you submit.

Covenant Headroom10 minRead a compliance certificate like a credit analyst. Net leverage, interest cover and fixed charge cover against their levels, the test with the least room, its EBITDA cushion, and whether the borrower survives a fall in EBITDA.Options Payoff Lab8 minThe four single-leg option positions at expiry, drawn as two lines rather than one: what the contract settles for, and what it settles for after the premium. Move the strike, the premium or the share price and watch breakeven, maximum gain and maximum loss follow.
