Do you know how to pitch a stock in an interview?

Today we're going to show you how to stick around to see how an MD from Citibank Equity

Research would answer that question.

If you're applying to equity research, investment banking, or just any market-based or buy-side-based

rules, you should be prepared to pitch your interviewer a stock or two.

Today we have Craig Irvine.

He was formerly managing director in equity research at City, and he's going to show us how

he'd answer some of the most common interview

questions that was actually submitted to us on the Wall Street Waste's company database for Citibank

Equity Research specifically. So watch as he answers some of these toughest interview questions,

including how to pitch a stock. Hi, Craig. Welcome to the interview. Thanks for having Thanks, Sandy. Nice to meet you. Yeah. And thank you for taking the time because I know you're a really busy man. So for the purpose of this, would you give our audience a quick introduction about your background and particularly in equity research? Okay, sure. I spent a number of years in equity research. I started out covering banks. Most of it was in Asia. My first job was actually in Hong Kong. And I did that for a couple of years. And then I switched to cover telecoms for a number of years. And then I was ahead of research in for Asia for Daiwa capital markets for about three years. I left that about 10 years ago and since then have been working mostly with private companies

and other different analytical type roles effectively working for private credit underwriting

and family office P-E type investing.

So I came into equity research largely because towards the end of business school, I just

figured out it was a great combination for me.

You know, I'm very analytical and very quantitative, but I also love sitting across the table

talking to people.

I like presenting ideas of different things,

whether big ideas or small ideas, both.

And I realized that that was actually a really good fit for me personally.

So that's why I said, well, that.

Awesome.
