HF internship phone interview

before you say it, I already used the search function and couldn't find anything really helpful. I have a phone interview for a internship with a HF coming up with the CFO and another exec. I don't really know what the position is though since there was no description when i applied. Was wondering if they would be asking any technicals or mostly behavioral type of stuff since I don't have trading exp. and not a finance major.

Just relax, keep calm and do your best-you don't have time to learn anything you don't already know in a meaningful way. Play to what you do know and what your strengths are, and DON'T try to act like you know more than you do/BS.

There have been many great comebacks throughout history. Jesus was dead but then came back as an all-powerful God-Zombie.
