I wouldn't worry too much about technicals. I've been through a few commercial banking interviews and none of them were heavy on technical knowledge.

Some common questions:

If you could look at one statement to evaluate the financial health of a company, what would it be? (also all the main cash flow metrics) 5 C's of credit Credit risk Coverage ratios (DSCR, etc)

Interviews were fit for the most part, it's definitely not rocket science and they want to see if you can fit in with their culture.
