BofA M&A superday structure

Hi, 

I’m preparing for a superday with Bank of America’s M&A group and I’m trying to get a sense of how structured the day is. Will I be rotating through different interviewers from the same team or from different product and coverage groups? Also, how technical do they get compared to other bulge bracket M&A groups? I’m especially wondering whether they emphasize accounting and integration topics or keep things at a general valuation level.

Hey there! Congratulations on landing a Superday for Bank of America’s M&A group—that's a huge step. Preparing for a Superday is intense, and knowing the structure can definitely help calm the nerves.

From my experience and what I’ve seen, BofA Superdays, especially for a specific group like M&A, are typically structured as a series of back-to-back interviews. You can expect to rotate through several interviewers, often ranging from Analysts all the way up to Managing Directors. While you'll primarily be meeting with bankers from the M&A team you're interviewing for, it's not uncommon to also meet with people from different product or coverage groups, especially if the team wants to assess your fit with the broader banking culture. The day is designed to test your technical skills, behavioral fit, and overall endurance.

Regarding the technicals, M&A groups generally demand a high level of proficiency. While general valuation concepts (like DCF, comps, and LBOs) are absolutely essential and will be tested rigorously, M&A interviews often dive deeper. Since M&A is all about the transaction process, you should definitely expect questions on accounting, particularly around purchase price allocation (PPA), accretion/dilution analysis, and how synergies are calculated and incorporated into a merger model. They want to see that you understand the mechanics of how a deal affects the financial statements of both the buyer and the target. Be ready to apply your knowledge to real-world scenarios, so don't just memorize formulas—understand the logic behind them. Good luck!

Hey!

At BofA M&A Superdays, the structure is usually quite organized, with candidates rotating through several interviews in a row. You can expect to meet with a mix of team members, often from the M&A group itself but sometimes also from related coverage or product groups to test how well-rounded you are. 

Each interview is typically 30 to 45 minutes, and the flow is designed to assess both technical skills and cultural fit across different perspectives.

In terms of technical depth, BofA M&A tends to test more heavily than some coverage teams, but it usually stays within the range expected of an analyst candidate. You should be comfortable with core valuation topics, accounting linkages, and deal rationale. They may probe a bit deeper into M&A-specific areas such as accretion dilution, synergies, and integration considerations, since this group is focused on execution. 

That said, they are not expecting you to model a live deal from scratch in an interview but rather to demonstrate clear, structured thinking around how transactions work and why they create value. Showing that you can communicate technical ideas clearly and logically will set you apart.

Congrats on the superday! 

At BofA M&A, the superday is usually quite structured, with back-to-back interviews, typically 3-5 ,with different bankers from the M&A team (less cross-group rotation than in generalist pools). Expect a mix of VPs and associates, sometimes a senior MD as well.

Technicals can go deep. Strong focus on accounting (PPA, goodwill, synergies), integration logic, and detailed valuation work, not just high-level multiples. Be ready to walk through merger models, and explain how deals affect the financials post-close. It’s more hands-on than some other BBs.
