I have an interview with a BB Strategy team for a Junior Strategy Associate role. Although, I've prepared a few questions on the macro scenario, sectors etc. it will be helpful if someone who works in or with Strategy teams can provide with some more info on what else to expect in a Strategy interview. Thanks in advance.

Equity Strategy interview (Originally Posted: 12/28/2011)
I will be interviewing an entry level position in a BB's equity strategy team. Other than macro economies, what else to expect during the interview? It will be appreciated if anyone work in the team or have similar experiences can offer some hints. Thank you in advance :)
The key is to understand the impact of macro / bigger picture thematic issues on index/sector level moves. I.e. if Chinese growth slows, what does this mean over the next year? If unemployment in the US rises, what does this mean for consumer goods? A knowledge of relevant indices/sectors, as well as the instruments available to play on them (futures, ETFs, swaps, options) is worth knowing. Just read some strategy pieces (you can probably find on zerohedge), and go from there.
