Hello, I have done the first couple of screenings for an Associate position and gone through the modeling test. I'm scheduled to speak to a senior member of the firm, not on the coverage team. Any idea of what the questions might entail? Is it going to be more of a fit interview or pretty technical?

Purely fit.
do you mind discussing what the modeling test entailed?
It was basically updating a model from an P/R and writing a note, which seems fairly standard.
How much time did they give you?
It was a few hours, maybe about 3
It was a few hours, maybe about 3
Did you do this while in their office? or do they just email you a model
Is this entry level?
Yep
Most likely a fit interview if it's not an actual analyst but someone from research business management.
