just had my first round interview - overall, i think it wasn't too bad but how particular are they with small math mistakes? disclaimer - these math mistakes were caught before coming to conclusions and further analysis but i was just concerned that they would strongly take that against me
any thoughts ?
first case was a profitability case, got the framework down (interviewer agreed with my points and said it was reasonable) did a P&L analysis, but missed a 0 in calculations so i had to redo it and then i just continued on with analysis. second case was similar - was just worried because i know how accurate they'd like candidates to be!
