    The problem

    You know the theory. You freeze when the VP pushes back.

    IB cuts rarely happen on the opening question. They happen when the VP stops you at second 20 and asks you to redo the logic live. That's what you need to train for.

    No real pressure

    You practice alone, at your own pace. In the interview, the VP interrupts you at second 20: 'assume the risk-free rate moves 50 bps — how does your WACC change?' Silence. That's the difference between ready and eliminated.

    No honest feedback

    Your peers say it went well. The AI doesn't lie: it shows exactly where you failed to state an assumption, lost structure, or sounded uncertain. Feedback a mentor charges $500/hour to give.

    No local market context

    Generic prep doesn't reflect how Goldman Sachs, J.P. Morgan, Morgan Stanley, Evercore, Lazard or Centerview actually interview on DCF, LBO, M&A and accretion/dilution.

    AI Mock Interview

    Simulate the pressure of a real interview.

    You don't know what question is coming. You don't know when it will cut you off. All you know is that after every session, you'll know exactly where to improve — with a score, breakdown, and next steps.

    Interviewer

    Walk me through how you would value a software company preparing for a potential sale process.

    You

    I would triangulate valuation using a DCF, trading comparables, and precedent transactions. For the DCF, I would forecast revenue growth, margins, working capital, capex, and free cash flow, then discount those cash flows using WACC and estimate terminal value. For comps, I would look at relevant public software companies and compare EV/Revenue and EV/EBITDA multiples, adjusting for growth, profitability, scale, and retention profile. For precedent transactions, I would focus on recent M&A deals involving similar software assets and control premiums.

    Follow-up

    How would you reconcile the valuation outputs if your DCF and trading comps disagree by more than 20%?

    Interviewer feedback (AI)

    Good structure. Add more precision around growth durability, margin profile, customer retention, and how you would reconcile conflicting valuation outputs.

    Error flagged

    Missing assumption: no terminal growth rate or steady-state EBITDA margin stated before the DCF.
