The interviewers were relatively chill and laughing a bit throughout. Some questions included: what is a time when I failed to pay attention to detail, what happened, and how did I handle it, tell me about a time you exhibited teamwork, tell me about a time you had a disagreement with your team, walk me through a dcf and what are some ways to value a company

How did you answer each of these questions (please be specific)?:
They started off asking tell me about yourself and I walked them through my story. The behavioral questions i answered by talking about my resume experiences. They asked some follow-ups to each story I told. The technical questions were at the end and I just briefly gave pretty standard answers to them. Ex. DCF - talked about projecting FCFs + finding terminal value, discounting them to present day, sum to get enterprise value. For valuation, I talked about discounted cash flows, comps valuation, and precedent transactions
