pretty tough
Use qualitative questions as an opportunity to shine during your interview. Whereas technical questions tend to have a rigid and correct answer, qualitative questions are more open-ended. Yes, interviewers are looking for a certain type of answer, but the sky is the limit regarding how you convey these traits. Highly impressive and interesting answers will make you stand out and increase the chances the interviewer remembers you come selection time.

Interview Questions
fit
technical
Qualitative interview questions (also commonly referred to as “fit” questions) are an important part of any investment banking interview. This type of question is not uncommon, and candidates often discount the importance of qualitative questions (instead focusing their energy on technical questions). Both qualitative and technical questions are important, and they test for very different traits and capabilities. Most investment banks are looking for well-rounded candidates and therefore pay close attention to both types of questions.
