Very easy (I passed 6 months on the job in IB).
Ah, the Citadel FCAT (Fundamental Credit Analysis Test), quite the challenge! Based on the most helpful WSO content, here's what you might expect:
Format: The FCAT typically involves a blend of quantitative and qualitative analysis. You might be asked to dive into financial statements, assess creditworthiness, and make investment recommendations. The test could include multiple-choice questions, short answers, and longer, essay-type responses.
Time Limit: While the exact time limit can vary, Citadel is known for their rigorous testing processes. For example, there's mention of a 4-hour case study in the context, which suggests that you could be in for a few hours of intense analysis.
Remember, the key to acing such tests is a solid grasp of financial modeling, credit analysis, and a cool head under time pressure. Brush up on those financial statement analysis skills, and maybe even run through a few practice models to get in the zone. Good luck!
