Do I need to memorise my stock pitch for upcoming ER interview?
Hello everyone, I have an upcoming interview for an ER analyst position. I have been working on a stock pitch and was wondering if I am expected to memorise the EPS, earnings, percentage changes, etc. ? I was planning to do this in all cases but was also questioning if it would be a good idea to write down the key figures separately in case i forget some of them.
Just bring your stock write-up, model printouts and any supporting data printout to your interview.
If you make it pretty, you can give a copy of your pitch to your interviewer.
Just make sure everything is correct and well formatted.
You also answered my previous question a couple days back and it was helpful, thank you! :)
np, good luck
No need to memorize exact numbers, but you should know approximately where your estimates are, what multiple you are using and why, or DCF assumptions if you do those (gross). I would say the story as to why consensus is wrong is more important than remembering XYZ did $42.069B in sales
Printing out a nicely formatted write up and model would be brownie points if I was interviewing you.
Cool. Good to know. Thanks. I was in doubt about printing anything out and was planning to go with rough estimates as a memory aid.
Should I mention at what price I recommend to go long on that stock? I am using multiples since it is easier for me (not a Finance graduate). If the company has earnings (they have been very stable in the past and steady increase across the years except during Covid) coming out next month, should I say anything about that?
Ive never had an interview that went super deep in stock pitches. Just my 2c. It’s usually just a 1-2min pitch with maybe a few follow up questions to see if you are paying attention.
If they report soon, I would take a view on if they beat/miss and why. But probably wont need to go that deep.
Thanks a lot. Yeah you're right, it should be max 2.5 mins. I am just preparing for a range of responses to potential questions. I have researched everything about the company so should be good.
One final question, I'm going in with only one long pitch for interviews at a BB and an AM. Do you think I should prepare one more? I honestly still have a lot of preparation to do for the technicals and trying to invest my time in that. If there's a risk that they might ask for two pitches then would rather be ready for that as well.
