I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Houlihan Lokey (New York, NY) in Aug 2022
Interview
An initial interview which was a mix of technical and behaviors. Followed by a super day of three interviews. Not overly technical, but some questions to make sure you understand accounting, valuation metholodiges, etc.
If you're well verse with the cfa curriculum it shouldnt be mu h of an issue. Just be yourself and it shouldnt be an isssue. The interview would be in their office and not in the college even if you've applied through college.
Brief, walk through resume and then random questions. Interviewers were unwelcoming and not necessarily friendly. 30% background, 20% behavioral/situational, 50% technical. All questions can be easily handled with light preparation and thinking recalling stories quickly
