In this video we go over the most common finance interview questions based on our experience interviewing at companies like Goldman Sachs, Citi, Tesla, Amazon, JP Morgan, and more. These interview questions are common for financial planning and analysis, accounting, and investment banking roles.
The video will focus on three types of technical questions, which are accounting, finance and brainteasers.
- Accounting questions will range from analysing the three financial statements to understanding how changes in inventory affect them.
- Finance questions will cover valuation methods such as DCF and multiples, alongside capital budgeting and an EBITDA breakdown
- Brainteaser questions will be split into mental math and guesstimates (market sizing). Mental math question are often just calculations such as 27*33, while guesstimates are estimating random statistics such as the number of gas stations in the US.
Throughout, you'll learn how to answer the question in great detail so you can impress the interviewer and land your job offer!

Understanding personal finances and investing will most likely lead to greater financial independence. By being knowledgeable about money and investing, individuals can make informed decisions about how to save, spend, and invest their money. A trader made over $350k in this recession influenced market
The best course of action is to ask a consultant or investing coach for guidance or assistance.
Speaking with a consultant helped me stay afloat in the market and grow my portfolio to about 65% since January, even though I know it sounds obvious or generic.
Please who is the consultant that assist you with your investment and if you don't mind, how do I get in touch with this person
*John Desmond Heppolette* is the licensed fiduciary I use. Just research the name. You'd find necessary details to work with a correspondence to set up an appointment..
Thanks for sharing, I just looked him up on the web and I would say he really has an impressive background in investing. I will write him an e-mail shortly.
this recommendation came at right time, very much appreciate it. curiously inputted his full name on my browser and found his site top search, no bs.. over 20 years of experience is certainly striking!
This is very helpful. I jad 2 interviews and I just realised how much important these basic questions are and used by interviewers to check our concepts. Amazing. Keep up the good work!
Thank you so much for the help Kenji. Just two weeks ago I had to make a DCF Model for my final project of accounting class in my first year of finance, and they hadn't taught us how to do it. Your DCF step-by-step guide saved me. You're amazing!
Of course they taught you bro maybe you werenât paying attention or maybe u should change ur uni.
â@@strynth1226not necessarily I see this in uni sometimes where the professor will make you value a company using a dcf in the beginning class after maybe 7 classes to really make you think then go over all the dcf techniques and at the end of the term you should be able to do it appropriately
Hi Kenji, thanks for the great video, would love to see a part 2 or even part 3!
Awesome breakdown! Seen these questions in many banking and finance interviews!
Very helpful!! Thank you Kenji!

This is what actually I was looking for. Detailed explanation to each of the questions. Thank you boss for providing important info.
Glad it was helpful!
So helpful! Thanks!
Thank you, great videođ„
Hi Kenji, many thanks for posting your videos! Could you do one that covers interview questions for financial analyst roles in e-commerce and retail companies? Theyâre always looking for candidates who can budget & forecast, do financial modeling etc. Whatâs the right technique in going about answering such questions, especially if you have to describe excel spreadsheets that you cannot refer to? Could you share some examples?
Many thanks in advance!
Super vidéo, continue !
Omg! you are so great
and your way of explaining things is so good.
totally loved it.
Glad you liked it!
Hello Kenji, i really like your videos. Very professional and to the point. Can u make a similar interview questions for freshers who want to get in to US taxes esp in big 4s.

Love the video, how come you've such a high price tag for the finance course?
Thank you can we have the recorded classes if we needed repeated please
Many thanks, Kenji. Would appreciate if you can make a video dedicated to guesstimate questions, please. Thanks đ
I love your content, how you explain everything so quickly and easily, love from India, I am pursuing a chartered accountant course and CFA also and your videos help me a lot, I hope one day I am also placed at the top investment banking companies.
thank you for your comment, best of luck to you!
same kritika!!! much helpful if you could help me too!!
Does your excel class make sense for curious beginners??
Hi kenji , I really love your videos â€đbecause they help us to learn a lot of practical knowledge, I have a small request can you make a video:-how to solve guesstimates like a pro so that would help us a lot
Noted thank you for the suggestion!
You should learn about a method called Fermization. Enrico Fermi is a physicist who actually invented these types of guesstimation problems. So that's what you need to be a pro on solving these problems.
I'm in complete awe at how I went from living an average life to making over 63k per month. It's amazing. The financial markets are full with opportunities, but I've learned a lot over the past few years to doubt that. The key is knowing where to focus. Well appreciated, Rodger Michael Karl.
In a short amount of time, I was able to increase my rank from 63K to 210K. Well, I was only according to Rodger Michael Karl's instructions and advice as he is also my FA. You're good to go as long as you get competent assistance.
Whoa, I just looked up his name on Google and saw his impressive resume. I consider myself lucky to have found this comment area.
Thank you so much for the advice. Your coach was simple to discover online. I did my research on him before I scheduled our phone call. He appears knowledgeable based on his online resume.
Rodger Michael Karl truly has some excellent tactics. On my portfolio, I had weekly gains of over $27,000. Your capital actually determines your earnings.
Rodger Michael Karl's techniques are unmatched and extremely successful. search for his full name online.
I am an average student doing mba but completely clueless about the placements gow do i keep trying and where do i apply. I am a fresher.
Can we say that an increase in inventory implies Ă purchase of goods in credit, therefore an impact on P&L? It could be a return of goods by clients
Do CFA, CPA, CMA help in getting into IB, PE, HF or just learning Modelling and Excel is enough with relevant internship experience?
The only thing that can get you into HF, IB, PE is an MBA from a top10 university. Even with a good MBA getting into PE is crazy difficult, most people first try to get into MBB in order to get into PE.
Kenji, is there a chance to get a remote finance job in US company being from middle Europe? Would companies even consider such candidate?
Yes, try a VC startup firm
I have an interesting question. What finance jobs are available for full time remote work? I figured this would be a great video considering the pandemic pushing people to remote work.
Awesome đđđ
Thank you!
*When it comes to investing, I'm so ignorant about it, I hereby ask; What's your say or thought for anyone with over $20k looking for the best ways to make good returns off it? I will appreciate any help here on how to do this*
@Lucy Bernardi Interesting, I've always been fascinated with investing and I need to start now. Could you possibly give more information on your Investment Professional and how I can reach out to her?
Invest it in acquiring high-income skills and get to the point where you have a spare $5-10k/MONTH before you start speculating.
Buy a foreclosed home for around 10k, add 5k in fixing the place, instead of selling it immediately and paying the 30k sellers fee, you rent it out for 900 bucks a month for 3 years, saving the 30k you need for the fee & on top of that the value of your house will go up by about 50k as well after you fix it up, hold it, then rent it out, sell it refinance and do a 1030 so instead of paying taxes on each house you sell you use that tax money to out a down payment in a new house while keeping your cash flow
So smart, So handsome!
Cheers Sacha!
When explainning, please do not remove images
do any investment banks
