In today's recruiting landscape, employers are increasingly evaluating practical skills such as LBO model building, not just interviews and applications. For example, candidates may be asked to build an LBO model in a job simulation, or students and MBA candidates may be asked to present an M&A proposal during a summer internship. Practical skills are now required to break into investment banking and PE funds.
This training provides rigorous LBO modeling coaching to prepare you for landing roles at investment banks, PE funds, and activist funds.
