From the inside
Reasons that work in interviews
3 reasons for Trez Capital
Credit interviews test whether you think about downside first. The strongest framing is that you want to learn to underwrite what happens when a business underperforms, which equity investing never forces you to do properly. Then make it specific to their position in the capital structure.
Commercial real estate lending across Canada and the US, so you learn real estate credit specifically rather than corporate.
Both debt and equity participation in projects, which means you see the full capital stack on an asset.
Vancouver-based with significant US exposure, particularly in fast-growing Sun Belt markets.
