Really great prep for Finance interviews
6 stars, because it's helpful too. A really fun read, for me it was like a book of crosswords. This book is best suited for MBA's interviewing for top jobs, or undergrads interested in seeing what's expected of them after they get an MBA.
THIS E-book IS UNPRINTABLE
Don't purchase the e-book if you need to print out this book. AMAZON does not explicitly tell you that it is unprintable. It will be a nightmare to even communicate with the "refund and returns" department.They will repeatedly evade your questions and in the end will not refund you- very unethical. Get the paper version of this GREAT book otherwise AMAZON will rip you off. Why is it that Amazon has no telephone number when it comes to refunds and returns? A little shady...
Do NOT interview for any analytic job before reading this!
This book is specifically targeted at those applying for highly-quantitative jobs on Wall Street, and any job seeker in that area would be nuts not to take advantage of the inside information Professor Crack reveals.
The reason I am writing this review, though, is that I believe the sample interview questions and advice are invaluable to anyone interviewing for any job that involves a lot of analysis.
I am not in the finance field, but rather in technology consulting. Having practiced with Heard on the Street, I found the "tough" interview questions I encountered to be downright easy, and I breezed through several rounds of interviews, landing the job I wanted at a major computer company best known by its three-letter acronym.
If you're headed to Wall Street, reading this book is a no-brainer. If you're headed anywhere else that involves numbers, logic or analysis of a non-financial nature, you'll still be glad you read it.
