I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Kroll (Londres, Inglaterra) in Mar 2021
Interview
- First Round Interview: 30-minutes with a Director and 30-minutes with a VP. Both technical interviews where I had to answer questions on valuing both debt and equity (walk me through a DCF, Discount rate for a bond, valuing cryptocurrency etc.)
- Second Round Interview: VP and MD interviews. VP Interview was a short case study on how to value a small shop (use DCF as there is no clear comparables based on size). MD interview was a fit/ airport test to ascertain whether I would be a good fit for the company.

CV submission was followed by an online recorded video interview which was sent to shortlisted people. Then we were called into an assessment centre. The final stages were one on one interview with a Managing Director.
