Fixed income portfolio management interview

Have a telephonic interview with head of some group in fixed income at a top 3 Asset Management firm soon. Going by description they are looking for someone with knowledge of e.g. VBA, which I'm capable of but no clear idea of it's use in fixed income. Should I expect it to be technical to the level they ask me stuff out of Benninga's financial modeling book? This is for an internship position.

Would also appreciate any good reads on sovereign bonds
