If You Want To Learn How To Answer The
Toughest Investment Banking Interview
Questions In 2008/09, This Will Be The
Most Important Letter You Ever Read...
From: Brett Riley
Wednesday, 10.12am
Dear Friend,
If you're like most college students trying to get your foot in the door in one of the most lucrative and prestigious careers around - investment banking - you're struggling to find a way to convert those hard earned job interviews into...
Full-time job offers and internships!
I mean, let's face it. Investment banking interviews are the most stressful, rigorous, and some would say intimidating interviews out there, period.
It's safe to say that there is absolutely no point sending painstakingly written resumes and online applications...then having to pass numerical, verbal and reasoning tests...if you stumble at the last and most important part...
The dreaded investment banking interviews.
Test: Let's See If You Can Answer
These Common Questions NOW
These interview questions are fired at you now in quick succession by two bankers sitting opposite you. Are you capable of answering them on-cue, right now?
"How would you calculate the value of a bond?"
"What stocks do you follow?"
"Do you play golf?"
"What's the best idea you've had and how will you top it?"
"What is put-call parity?"
"Ever found a innovative solution to a complex problem?"
"Without using paper, what is 17 x 8.5?"
If you can't answer these now, your chances are slim.
These are only a few of the 80+ questions you could get asked at your investment banking interview...and you only get one chance to make your impression on these busy people!
Did you know that you don't need overcomplicated theories that take countless hours to learn before you know how to answer investment banking technical questions...
You just need some structure and a cheat sheet?
Unfortunately, you may be one of those candidates who was convinced you nailed the interview and got the job...only to have got that devastating call and been rejected, after all that hard work.
To be quite frank, a shocking percentage of the positions at investment banks are now being filled by people with inside contacts within investment banking, so you have to be amongst the very best to get in through the regular process.
But what really makes me wonder is the deep nervousness and anxiety that intelligent, qualified just like you go through before their investment banking interviews! After some thought, I realized that it comes down to uncertainty...
One, the uncertainty about what the interviewer is going to ask. Two, the uncertainty of how to answer the questions right so that you get offered the job!
I've found that the majority of college graduates lack confidence in corporate interviews, and from a recent survey, 84% were unsure of how to prepare for an interview at an investment bank.
You don't know me yet, I realize, but I'd hate to think that you were wasting your time piecing little bits of information together from the Internet, your friends and your careers advisor...maybe even spending hundreds or thousands of dollars on interview coaching...only to be stressed out and unprepared the night before the big interview, because you realized (too late) that your approach was MASSIVELY flawed from the beginning.
That's why I created this webpage, and put together unmissable information that will help you nail your interview at any investment bank and secure job offers with your dream firms...guaranteed.
The Investment Banking industry is dominated by such world-class financial instituations as the ones below.
Can you take a moment to imagine what kind of an impact an investment banking career with one of these forms could have on your life...financially and personally?
Goldman Sachs
Merrill Lynch
Morgan Stanley
JPMorgan Chase
Lehman Brothers,
Citigroup,
Credit Suisse,
Banc of America Securities,
Nomura Holdings
UBS Investment Bank
Deutsche Bank
ABN Amro,
Barclays Capital
and many more...

How I Got FIVE Investment Banking
Job Offers In Less Than 3 Months...
...And Why I'm The Guy To Help YOU!
I know you may have some concerns...
After all...who am I to be giving YOU advice about your investment banking interviews? And, more importantly, how can you trust what I'm telling you?
These are important questions.
My name is Brett Riley, and when it comes to the stress of investment banking interviews, I know exactly how you feel. Believe me, I've been there myself!
My first interview was a total disaster!
Now I realize it, I was only very slightly prepared...I sweated, I somehow stumbled through the technical questions, and sat through those awkward silences where the interviewers just stared at me...talk about intense pressure!
Worst of all, the answers that I did give were just not convincing enough to display that I was the right guy for them. Needless to say, I didn't get the job and was completely confused!
Here I was, thinking I was a smart guy, with good grades...outgoing, confident, with great extracurricular activities and knowledge of the financial world...I knew I was the right person for the job! But on the last hurdle, I stumbled and fell.
So I sat down and thought about why I hadn't performed at interview and only one thought kept coming up...
"There is no substitute for preparation."
I spent weeks talking to banking professionals, recruitment specialists, read books on finance, asked people about their experiences with investment banking interviews...
And finally produced something that I knew would prepare me for my next interview with an investment bank.
I tried using this information...and let's just say that my interview went like a dream... I came prepared, answered the questions with structure, accuracy and confidence, developed a rapport with the interviewer in the process and for invited for a final round interview! Again, I prepared and read books, talked to the right people and found the right information.
My final round at the firm was tough, but I ended up getting a full-time offer! I was ecstatic, excited, but most of all RELIEVED, because I had security for when I left college.
I then went for an interview at another investment bank...the system I had prepared worked, and I got the job...again! I was sure that it was a fluke and I tested it out on a third firm, and guess what...I landed an offer with them too!
By the 5th JOB OFFER I received, I knew I had something very powerful and valuable in my hands and thought to myself, "There's a secret to this..." The interviews were actually getting easier!
I found myself coming from a place where I had been rejected first time from an investment bank, ending up in a position of power, with FIVE real job offers in my hands. I actually got to sit back and choose the firm that I wanted to go to!
Obviously, my roommate at the time came to me for help because he was looking for a job in investment banking too. I gave him the same GOLDMINE of information that I had spent literally weeks preparing...
And I don't have to tell you (but I will!) that he is now working at a top investment bank, earning more than $85,000.
After helping him, it made me think that if we both needed this...many, many hard-working college students and graduates around the world needed this key information to secure their investment banking careers now.
Here's what some people are saying about this page:
He Got A Position At
His #1 Choice Firm...
"I got offered a position at Goldman Sachs for equity trading...your materials played a big part in me getting that position. I was so overwhelmed at one point before the interview, but I remembered what you mentioned about structure and clarity and my answers came off really well. Thank you."
C.A., VA
With Her New Information,
She's Excited To Take On Her
7+ Interviews Coming Up...
"It's nice to get to an investment banking interview and really not stress. There are so many claims in your ads, I was actually amazed to find you lived up to every one of them in your book. Thanks, I'm ready for all my other interviews!! I'll pass the word on to my friends (but not too many of them!) Bye!"
K.J.M., MI
He Surprised Himself With
His Investment Banking
Interview Success...
"...when I read section 4, I didn't think that I would get asked those questions but they pulled out 3 out of 12 questions from that section! I couldn't believe they wanted that kind of information! I would have been totally stuck on those if I hadn't read the book before the interview - thanks for the heads-up."
A.L., TX
He Got An Internship With A
Top European Investment Bank...
"At first I have to admit that I was skeptical about ordering your book. After my first interview, I realized that the first section alone paid for the book hundreds of times over because I got my internship at Deutsche! By the way I used your entire answer that you gave for the negotiation question. Thanks for that"
C.S., London, UK
She's Set To Make Over
$60,000 In Her First Year Alone!
"...it was very weird when I walked into the interview and he actually started doing EXACTLY what you said he would. It was an exhilarating feeling to finally have the 'edge' on the interviewer. I knew exactly what he was setting me up for and how to beat him at his own game lol...by the way, I got an offer at Citigroup! (see how I left that to the end!)"
J.S., NY
He Came Back From Devastating Rejections To Put Himself Amongst
The Top Competitors...
"Brett, I had been rejected from Merrill Lynch, Goldmans and Morgan Stanley after my first interviews, so I needed HELP! I got on the net and I am so lucky that I stumbled across this site a couple of weeks ago. Cut a long story short, my last interview went great and I've got a few more - and I know I'm going to kill those! Keep up the good work IBInterviews. Thanks again!"

Quick Example Of A "Fit" Question & Answer
If the interviewer asked me about a time when I had been in a leadership position and there was a difficult member of the team who was causing some aggravation, and how I handled the situation, I would say:
"I decided to sit him down and outlined his specific skills, which were X, Y and Z. I told him that the team needed his skills and of course, his valuable input. I reminded him of how exciting it would be if the team accomplished our goal. I kept a friendly attitude and carefully addressed the fact that his attitudes/actions were not congruent with what I knew he was capable of and reminded him of his past successes. The meeting ended on an energetic note and he assured me of his commitment; he only had to be reminded of why the goal, and why working with our team with his specific expertise, motivated him. He was quickly back on track achieving A, B and C, and ended up a great person to work with. I was proud to have him on our team."
Quick Example Of A Technical Question
Here's what I would say when asked a question like "What is Beta?":
"Well, beta is a measure of the sensitivity of a security's return in relation to the market. If a stock has a beta of more than 1, it means that it is more volatile, or "swings more" than the market. And if a stock has a beta of 1, it is as risky as the market. If the beta is less than 1, the stock moves less than the market. But if a stock with a higer beta and therefore a higher risk would also indicate a higher return and vice versa. Basically, a stable blue-chip would have a beta of close to 1, where a volatile bio-tech firm would probably have a beta of more than 1."
Our surveys have shown that 81% of all investment banking candidates who are rejected at interview level fail because of a lack of preparation.

"Case Study Of 'R.S.' - Someone Just Like You Who Got A FULL-TIME Job Offer At A Bulge Bracket Investment Bank With The Same Strategies You're About To Discover..."
"Last Year, He Made Over $95,000 USD
In Corporate Finance. He Originally
Got His Job By Using Our Materials.
We Caught Up With Him..."
"R., how did you initially come across us?"
Well I had an interview at the bank I'm currently working at, for a position in corporate finance. I was preparing by searching for questions that were asked at investment banking interviews in Google and came across your site. You had a different website then, but it looked just like what I wanted, so I bought the eBook.
"What did you like most about the book, and what part of it helped you the most at your interview?"
I have to say that your section on technical questions was worth every penny I paid for the book! To be honest, I really didn't know much about what I was applying for, and I just needed to understand what it was about first of all.
I think what I really liked about the book was that it was really well laid out. There wasn't any fluff like the other interview books I had read. It was just all the questions they could ask, and all the answers, of course with advice and tips from IBInterviews.com.
"How did you exactly use the eBook, because I know that many of my customers use it in
different ways..."
I didn't sit there and memorize all the answers! But I did read it thoroughly and remembered all the key points for each question. I think most importantly it built my confidence leading up to the interview. I also followed your 7 day prep guide which involved me doing an hour of focused research each day.
"Finally, how was your interview experience?"
Initially intimidating! I had a few rounds of interviews on different days, with different people, and sometimes with more than one interviewer in the room.
The first interview basically covered section 1 of your book and a part of section 2 (about the economy). The next round covered a lot (a LOT) of technical questions about my division and section 3 basically covered that. I used the bonus materials you gave with the book for all the aptitude tests and team exercises I had to do.
Long story short, they called me a couple of days after the final round and gave me the job. I joined that summer and have been working there ever since. I was made for this!

Bankers Were Earning Last Year...
"622,000 per employee..."
"Goldman said last week it had set aside a total of $16.5 billion this year for salaries, bonuses and benefits. On average, this would translate to $622,000 per employee.
The bonuses come in a year in which Goldman shareholders have benefitted from a rise of about 58 percent in the company's share price, the strongest returns of any Wall Street investment house.
Lehman Brothers Holdings Inc. and Bear Stearns Cos. have said they would pay about $12 billion in compensation each. Lehman said last week it paid its chief executive, Richard Fuld, $10.9 million in stock last year."
"7.7 Billion Shared Out In Salaries..."
"Lehman said it would pay its employees an average of $335,441 this year - paying 25,936 workers a total of $7.7 billion in salary, bonuses and other benefits At Bear Stearns, staff would receive an average of $321,740 in compensation."
"They call their mothers, then
their real estate brokers..."
"Anyone at the bonus line at Goldman Sachs died and went to bonus heaven," said Michael Holland, chairman of Holland & Co., a New York-based investment firm. "It doesn't get any better than this."
The bonuses at Goldman, the leading merger adviser in the industry, and elsewhere on Wall Street (Lehman Brothers and Bear Stearns report earnings Thursday, and their earnings are expected to be robust as well) are expected to give the New York area's economy a substantial boost, particularly in sales of high-end residential real estate luxury cars and other costly goods.
"When these guys learn what their bonuses are, we are among the first people they call," said Pamela Liebman, chief executive of Corcoran Group, a residential brokerage. "They call their mothers, and then their real estate brokers."
"Bonuses of more than £1m..."
"The fat cats are purring in the Square Mile this Christmas. It has been a record year, and nearly 5,000 bankers, brokers and fund managers working in the City of London are set to receive bonuses of more than £1m. For a select few, the year has ended even better - the biggest producers, the highest earners, are looking at £5m, £10m or even £20m for a single year's work."
"2007 Will Be Another Strong Year..."
"Bonuses this year will be huge, industry sources say. The pool is larger than ever, and the money will be distributed deeper into the organization. Managing directors at Goldman Sachs and other big banks could take home $20 million or more in bonuses, and that doesn't include profits from their shares that they own in their firms. Since investment banking firms outperformed the S&P, bankers with big stakes in their firms will see huge returns."

Be smart and be prepared.
P.P.P.S. A very popular question from our clients outside the United States is "will these investment banking interview secrets work for those outside the US (i.e. UK, Europe, Australia)?" This is a valid question.
I have many clients in the United States, UK, France, Germany, Italy, the Netherlands, Belgium, Canada, India, Australia, New Zealand, Asia and the Middle East. The only 2 real differences would be simple: (1) quoting different educational qualifications (e.g. AS-Levels for the UK) and (2) national indices (i.e. instead of "Where is the Dow?", a question would be "Where is the FTSE/DAX/CAC 40?" etc. The real JUICE you need is all in IBInterviews.
P.P.P.P.S. Remember, this offer is only valid until midnight on . So do yourself a favor and [order it now](http://1.ibanking.pay.clickbank.net) before the price goes up!
