Alvarez & Marsal Interview - how do I prepare?

I have a final round superday with A&M coming up this Friday. I have little management consulting experience, have been more focused in finance (interned at BB in equity research)

Does anyone have any insight into A&M recruiting/interview process, culture, etc.??

Thanks very much.

 

how did the process go? sorry i have no advice, but i am considering this firm, can you give any insight based on your experience?

If the glove don't fit, you must acquit!
 

No...would be interested in the backgrounds of your interviewers though. Seems like an interesting specialty.

I see correct spelling... Alvarez and Marsal.

Are you undergrad? What school and what group are you applying for? Just curious.

Undergrad at a semi-target, didn't apply for a specific group
